Continental Motors O-200-A or O-200-D Lightweight Aircraft Engine

Teledyne Continental Motors is now producing a lightweight version of the O-200 engine specifically for light sport aircraft.  The new American-made engine boasts of a "199 Pounds Dry Weight"

Alternatively, the O-200-A engine is available, as are numerous older (used) Continental engine installations.

Other engine features include: Lightweight crankshaft, CAD modeled engine design, spin-on oil filter, lightweight cylinder design, precision balance crankshaft, lightweight alternator, balanced connecting rods, lightweight valve covers, balanced pistons, lightweight high torque starter, dual magneto ignition, lightweight camshaft, Continental new engine warranty and Continental service and spare parts availability.

Continental engines provide a history of performance and reliability, with available worldwide parts and service support. Many kit builders have installed used and/or overhauled Continental engines. There is a large market for used Continental aircraft engines, with numerous sources for used engines, parts and after-market upgrades and enhancements.  If using a older Continental engine, we recommend that the engine be upgraded with a lighter (and more modern) electrical system.
