A friend is considering purchase of an RV which the  builder says has a low-time Lycoming O-320-TC 

 installed.  I can't seem to find just exactly  what an O-320-TC is. Can someone decipher the "TC" part and say 

 what it describes about this model of the  O-320?

  

 thanks for any help

  

 John

Twin Cam? NO, sorry, but central  single cam only.

 Turbo Charged? NO, that would be  called a T(I)O-320

 Totally Crapped out? Possibly worn  out beyond limits

 Type Certificated (i.e. not yet  an experimental engine)

  

 Obviously I don't know what -TC  stands for, so do not archive

Sounds like he is going to have to ask the owner what this means.  It’s not a standard designation that I’m aware of.    

   General Format:
