I have a Bonanza F33A...turbonormalized IO-520BB. Can anyone tell me what
are typical operating EGTs and CHTs in climb; at 65% cruise power; at 75%
cruise power? What maximums should be observed in the climb for EGTs, CHTs,
TIT, Oil? I constantly hear conflicting data and would be interested in the
experience of others. I am seeking info for standard 'by-the-book' ROP
operation and for LOP operation with GAMIs -- if you supply LOP info, at
what fuel flow? I you have experience with this engine but not in a Bonanza,
I am still interested in your info. Thanks to all.

Contact George Braly at GAMI (www.gami.com) for a good bunch of
answers on this. They've done much research, especially with the
turbonormalized engines. Much better info from him than on any
newsgroup.
