Subject: RV10-List: TD-300

Walking around OSH I noticed Continental is supposedly starting productio
n on a 240HP air cooled, direct drive diesel motor (TD-300 see attachment
). Seems a bit heavy but otherwise it appears to be a potential fit for t
he RV-10 airframe. I'm wondering if anyone has considered this engine for
 their -10.

Two reasons it won't work. "Only 230 hp", and weight is more than Cont
IO-550, at least 50 lbs heavier than Lyc IO-540. W&B won't work with that
much wt out front.
While the hp would be sufficient, especially if it was turbo-charged, you
would need the wt to be equal to or less than Lyc O-540. You would also
need someone to build an engine mount for it.
