This engine was said to be down on power - about 50 hp tops...

Cylinder barrels are cast iron... Crankcase and heads are duralumin... Cylinder jugs are made into the case half so no pulling a jug, you have to send in the case.
Continental's parts are ubiquitous and you can still buy new cylinders.
They would not be doing you a favor if they gave you an O-145 if you ask me.

Some
very good information on the small Continentals
from Harry Fenton, and below is an EAA webinar featuring him.
Careful --this information has the potential for making you into a hoarder.
