“.the same basic Jacobs engine powers my Cessna 195”

Were some the 195’s “blown”? Were they also the same basic engine? Seems to me that some of the 195 series were a bit different than others re. their powerplant.

There were several variations of the Jacobs used and the 190 used a Continental W-670 radial. Mine is turbocharged to 350 HP but the first version was the same 245 HP version used on the Bobcat...
