Any S18 ordered with more than 8 CPs must have capacity indicator CP7, and
will be a 709 through 718.  Obviously you can not get a 718 if you order
any ICFs, zIIPs, zAAPs or IFLs.  The lower capacity settings are only
available on a z9 with 8 or fewer general purpose CPs.  For example, you
could order an S18 as a 404 (four reduced speed CPs) with 4 zIIPs, 4 zAAPs,
2 ICFs, and 4 IFLs.  All of the specialty engines will run at full speed.
