Engine question

edit

The article says the P.57 Fachiro II variant was powered by a Continental IO-360-B2A of 168 hp, but there is no such engine. The Continental IO-360s all put out much more hp than that and there is no -B2A version. There is a Lycoming O-360-B2A (not "IO") of 168 hp, though (see List of Lycoming O-360 variants). These engines often get confused, is it possible that the P.57 Fachiro II is Lycoming powered, like the rest of the type? - Ahunt (talk) 21:09, 4 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

The ref I have says the II was powered by a 168hp Lycoming O-360-B2A. It looks like it was my typo when I originally created the article. MilborneOne (talk) 21:30, 4 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
