From what I gathered the 5170 was[1] a 286 design?

In any case, from the description:

Luckily I found an Ebay auction which offered an IBM 5170 mainboard for a very reasonable price.

I proceeded to draft modern KiCad schematics for the 5170 and subsequently modified the IBM designs to suit this project as much as possible.

Yeah I was confused, I assumed all the 51xx were the older 8088 models.
