Someone posted either here, or perhaps another group, that if the
engine is not making power when a prop strike occurs, then engine tear
down is not necessarily mandated. Don't know how you'd check the
engine to make sure though.

That was talking about the large radials, with their stocky, strong con rods
and crank. Opposed engines still rate a teardown, as I recall.
