See the link below for an article by Mike Busch on engine

temps, running LOP and ROP, and proper fuel system

adjustment to control CHT's.

Comprehensive, In-depth detail, Accurate data and a valued article on

the importance of running cooler temperatures.  It only took Jim Hergert

300 hours to replace all six top ends on his Lancair IVP.  So much for a

$70,000 engine going TBO.  At current rates that means three years

before those who are missing this important step begin to report the

cost of running on the high temperature side of the CHT gauges.



Cowl temperatures, airflow differentials, balanced injectors, fuel flow

rates, oil cooling efficiencies and CHTs are all important discussion

points.  Thanks Kevin.
