Engines & Props
The engine is an original model 7 cylinder radial Continental R 670, 220 hp. The engine has a major overhaul including a roller bearing crank bearing and NU Chrome cylinders. This work was completed several years ago and the engine has been stored in a temperature controlled hangar awaiting airframe restoration. In April 2024 the engine was sent to Air Repair, a vintage engine shop, to be inspected and run tested. The 4 hour test run data is on file. The mags, tack drive, step up drive and starter motor have been serviced and up dated.

In excellent condition and very rare, the Curtiss Reed model 55501 propeller was overhauled by Maxwell Propeller Service. During the inspection the steel hub was removed magnifluxed and cad plated.
