Design and development

The IO-520 series engines normally produce 285 to 310 horsepower (213 to 231 kW) and are used in numerous aircraft such as certain models of the Bellanca Viking 300 and Super Viking, the Beech Bonanza and Baron, and Cessna 185- 206-, 210-, 310-, and 400-series aircraft. The IO-520 remained in production in 2019.[1]

The turbocharged GTSIO-520's most common applications are the twin-engine Cessna 404 and 421, where it is rated at 375 hp (280 kW). The 'G' prefix indicated the incorporation of propeller reduction gearing.
