The V-1710 was 1395 lbs, 385 pounds lighter than I-1430 with a power-to-weight ratio of 1.05. The Merlin V-1650 weighed in at 1640, 25 pounds more than the smaller and unproven Continental with about the same power/weight ratio of about 1.00. It did not seem the XI-1430 would be the solution to any important problem.

The FP criteria defines EV as "Adds significant encyclopedic value to an article" Its the lead and only image in the Continental XI-1430 article. It adds to that article by showing what the whole engine looks like. And thats a significant add since there is a lot of variation in how engines look.©Geni 16:06, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
