    Engine Notes
    Engine is IO-540-R1-A5 which is factory installed on the 260C turbo model. This engine is not the same as normal aspirated found on other Comanches. It was designed with heavy duty crankshaft, piston and valves to be able to produce 260 hp at any altitude. Although the engine is original since new and it is in excellent running condition (Compression is 75/80 or better, all cyl), both Turbo chargers, all the Exhaust hardwares, clamps etc have all been replaced. Other newer components are: both Mags, both Exh Stacks, Engine gaskets & seals, Fuel Distributor. I have also installed the Gami injectors and what a difference it made with all 6 cyl EGT/CHT now being even. There is also engine Fire Wall and Interior Sound-Proofing.
