Continental 4 Cylinder Engines


We have done a number of smaller Conti engines, the first back in 1996. Mark Snow was an early SDS user on his C-85 powered Dragonfly, accumulating over 750 hours. Justin Mace had 350 hours on his SDS equipped, O-200 powered Dragonfly.


Fuel and spark control kit for O-200. Wiring harnesses, fasteners and plug wires not shown. $4709US for single ECU system with no options.

Options: fuel trim $300, card data logging $200, Digital fuel flow $100

See the article in the June 2018 Kitplanes magazine on our O-200 system



SDS on O-200 by Malcolm Savill in NZ


SDS EFI on a C-85 Powered Ercoupe


Bert Caron did an SDS EFI installation on an O-200. With some fin mods, he was able to fit the Lycoming style injector bosses into the Continental heads.


Mar. 15/17. We acquired an O-200 for jigging and development purposes. This was used to design some new CNC'd parts to make the installation easier on these engines which resulted in our new EFI kit shown above.


Working on prototype Hall sensor mount


Machined up some engine mount hardware to mount the engine on the test stand


Prototype Hall sensor mount fabbed up


Coils mounted in old mag position


CHT sensor mount for starting and warmup


Engine mounted up on test stand


Engine with sump, plugs, fuel pump, starter installed and engine stand support arms fabbed. BMW is used for dead weight to keep the assembly from running away.


New CNC'd bits


Coil pack mounted up to left mag position


Injector mounted to induction elbow


Throttle body in place

Some of Jim's comments:
"The results were: easy starting, winter and summer, smooth, slow idle, 20% gain in maximum static thrust and consistent, rock solid performance in every aspect of engine operation. These were previously unattainable with my stock, icing prone carburetor and magneto."
