Bonanza Serial #'s D-1 through D-491 most likely started service with the E-165-4 or E-165-4A engine. Beechcraft issued a Service Bulletin that addressed the re-designation of this engine to a E-185-1.

The Waikiki Beech was the fourth Bonanza built: the only modifications made to the otherwise standard Model 35 were the fixtures and tubing required to install the extra fuel tanks, 126 gallons in the cabin and a 62-gallon streamlined tank on each wing tip.

Three modifications of the basic Continental E-185 engine have been used in the Bonanzas. As indicated by the chart, it is permissible to install an E-185-1, E-185-8 or E-185-11 engine in the Model 35; however, it is not permissible to install an E-185-1 engine in Models B35 and C35.

The modern TCM-IO-550-R engine is certified to newer, more stringent standards than the older IO-520 engine. The new certification standard requires the IO-550-R engine to produce its rated 310 horsepower (hp) within a positive margin, and no minus. The older certification standard for the “285 hp” IO-520 is plus or minus 2.5%.
