"Boelkowj" wrote in message ... One of these days I will need to do a "top end" and wondering if higher compression cylinders would be a way to go. That way I would feel more comfortable using 100LL since my source of 80 octane is no longer available here. Would I also expect a little more horse power? Thanks That's one of the engines that run's OK on Mogas, no need for using avgas unless it's cheaper than mogas or you need to fly higher than 5,000 feet. Another consideration is your fuel system, if it's designed so badly that you get vapour lock with mogas then you'll have to stick to avgas, plays hell on your oil, you get a gray sludge from the lead content. -- --- Cheers, Jonathan Lowe. / don't bother me with insignificiant nonsence such as spelling, I don't care if it spelt properly / Sometimes I fly and sometimes I just dream about it. :-) Larry |
