The C75-8 series engines are similar to the C75-12 and C85-12 series except that they do not incorporate provisions for generator and starter drives. The C85 series engines are similar to the corresponding C75 series except for rating and a different carburetor setting. The C75-12B engine is similar to the C75-12 except that it incorporates a Stromberg PS-3 pressure carburetor (P/N 40284) at weight increase of 3 lb. See NOTE 3 for fuel pump. The C75-15 and C85-15 series engines are identical to the C75-12 and C85-12 series except that they incorporate modified mounting lugs for Lord flexible mount assemblies. Increased engine motion results and must be provided for in the installation. The C85-14F is the same as the C85-12F except that it incorporates provisions for modified mounting lugs for Lord flexible mounting assemblies that are used on the C90-I4F engine. Those models listed in the heading of this data sheet suffixed by letters F, H and J, differ from the basic model designation as follows: "F" denotes an SAE No. 1 flanged crankshaft rather than 0 taper, at weight increase of 1 lb. "H" denotes a special SAE No. 1 flanged crankshaft and special crankcase for installation of hydraulically operated controllable pitch propeller requiring oil supply through crankshaft. "J" denotes a fuel injector. Ex-Cell-O model A-41 (P/N 40572) or Ex-Cell-O model B-41 (P/N Ex-A40791) instead of a carburetor, at weight increase of 4 lb. NOTE 5.
