NOTE 4. Models 737C9HD2 & 4, 736C9HD2 & 4, and 740C9HD2 incorporate a torquemeter. NOTE 5. The following dry weights will apply for Models 737C9HD1,2,3,4 and 736C9HD1,2,3,4: Edison Splitdorf SF9LD-3, Scintilla SF9LN-4 SF9LD-5 magnetos installed magnetos installed 1360 lbs. (Models 1 & 3) 1376 lbs. (Models 1 & 3) 1365 lbs. (Models 2 & 4) 1381 lbs. (Models 2 & 4) NOTE 6. The 977C9HD1, 2 and 3 engine ratings and limitations are applicable to helicopter installation and operation. NOTE 7. The ratings of engine Models 977 and 987 C9HD1 are based on standard conditions of temperature and barometric pressure (60°F and 29.92 in. Hg. at sea level) and 80% relative humidity. If corrected to dry standard air conditions, the rated powers would be increased approximately 2.5% at sea level to 0.4% at 15,000 ft. for equal manifold pressure settings. NOTE 8. The following spark plugs are approved on these engines: AC 171, 181, 271, 273, 281, 285 BG RB19R-2, RB27R-1 Champion R-111, R-115, R-37S, R-37S-1, REA 37N, REB 37N, RHA 37N, RHB 37N, RHA 37E, RHB 37E NOTE 9. The 977C9HD3 engine is similar to the 977C9HD1 except the high ratio impeller drive has been deactivated by the removal of appropriate parts of the impeller drive and clutch control assembly. .....END.....
