TheContinental O-190(Company designationsC75andC85) is a series of engines made byContinental Motorsbeginning in the 1940s. Offlat-fourconfiguration, the engines produced 75 hp (56 kW) or 85 hp (63 kW) respectively.[1]
The two variants shared the same bore, stroke and compression ratio. The C85 produced ten extra horsepower by virtue of having a maximum permissible rpm of 2575 versus the 2275 of the C75.[1]
The C75 was in production from 1943 to 1952 and the C85 from 1944 to 1970.
