According to the Type Certificate Data Sheet (the certifying document for the aircraft), the aircraft can use CF6-80E1A2, A3 or A4 engines. The TCDS for the engine show the max. continuous power at 60,400 lbs. with the take-off ranging from 64,530 to 68,530 lbs. depending on model. This is for each engine.
