CESSNA 206/207 ENGINE CONVERSION
- The Most Efficient General Aviation Engine Available Today For Your Cessna 206 or 207 Aircraft
We can convert your IO-520-A, -F or IO-550-F to the most
efficient engine available for GA aircraft today. This conversion
may be performed when a top overhaul is required without
removing the engine from the airframe, or at the time you are
performing a major overhaul. The top end, cylinders, top
induction system and the fuel injection are the same as used on
the TCM “Permold” series IO-550-N, P & R engines. The
bottom end is the IO-520 / 550 Sand Cast case as currently
installed in your aircraft.
The Tuned Induction Manifold was designed for the TSIO-520-BE in 1984. The manifold was specifically tuned for the 520 CID engine at 2450 to 2550 RPM. The engine was designed for the Piper Aircraft PA46-310 and was only approved to operate Lean of Peak (LOP) in cruise mode. All TCM Cross Flow Engines in IO-550 and TSIO-550 series are a derivative of the TSIO-520-BE. TCM has never offered a cross flow version (certified) of the Sand Cast 520/550. All exhaust systems approved for the 206 / 207 are approved for this installation.
The resulting Power of the cross flow engine is superior to that of the standard IO-550 while allowing for a much improved fuel consumption and cooler running installation.
