REFLECTOR: Reflector Digest, Vol 113, Issue 37

Looks like a Lycoming IO720 by the spacing of the exhaust stacks. And the 5 blade MT prop would go along with the 400 HP this engine is rated for.

FAA records should reveal engine type and eight cylinders may be recorded. 
Just a thought.

Good idea. I checked the FAA DB again. I found that if a plane isn't using an aircraft engine, 99% of the time the FAA lists the engine as "Unknown/Experimental" or just leaves the data field blank. For the engines that they do list, they only keep track of type (piston, turbo-prop, jet) and horsepower or thrust. They don't have a place in their public database that indicates number of pistons.

That's how they listed mine Reiff, even though I put down what it was. Not sure why they do that.
