Continental O-470-R Engines

You'll often hear pilots referring to the Continental^® O-470 in reverent tones as "old reliable." Powering the majority of Cessna^® 180 and fixed-gear 182 aircraft from 1953 through 1986, this workhorse of an engine embodies simplicity, efficiency and ruggedness. Its track record speaks louder than words - a true brawny powerplant. In fact, some versions make full power at a smooth, quiet 2400 rpm.
