TCM Announces New Rebates On New, Rebuilt Powerplants

If You Need An Engine... Now's The Time To Buy

Teledyne Continental Motors announced this week a new rebate offer on all Genuine Continental New and Rebuilt Powerplants. The rebate comes on the heels of the January 15 announcement the company reduced engine prices by as much as 10% depending on model.

The additional savings, in the form of a factory rebate on Factory New and Factory Rebuilt powerplants, is intended to provide yet another incentive for aircraft owners to install a factory engine rather than electing to overhaul a run-out engine upon reaching TBO.

Factory-rebuilt engines from TCM are true zero time engines that are sold for a guaranteed price - a price that has recently been lowered 10% and now includes an additional $1,000 rebate ($2,000 on gear-driven engines) through April 15, 2009.

Overhauled engine price quotes are subject to change after post teardown inspection of crankshaft, connecting rods, cases and more. Additionally, some aircraft owners may be confused by what overhaulers refer to as a "zero time since overhaul" engine versus a true "zero time" engine from TCM. The fact is that only the OEM can manufacture new and factory-rebuilt engines that are "absolute zero time" engines.

Aircraft owners may want to research the many benefits of installing a genuine factory-new or factory-rebuilt engine versus an overhaul service prior to reinvesting in their aircraft. Benefits include a zero-time engine logbook, full compliance with all ADs and Service Bulletins, and quick turn-around time.

TCM also notes a zero time engine has more residual than a high-time overhauled engine. For example, a 100 hour TTSN (total time since new) engine retains more value than a 3,600 TT engine with 100 hours TTSO (total time since overhaul) because the overhauled engine is then actually a 3,700 TT engine.
