 Hi, I have a Motor Benz Aero Engine Data Plate from 1918 and I contacted Mercedes Benz Archives with reference to the plate and they sent me the following technical data :-

I would be most grateful if anyone can help translate this information for me.

Mercedes Benz were of the opinion that this engine may have been special as normally Bz IV engines were 200 PS and not 230 PS
