3. I have some New, unused Legacy parts for sale (see below)
(1.) LOP Test
10F LOP vs Max LOP before roughness (78F LOP): Comparison (9,500msl, 2,230 / 22.1, 12C OAT)

(hi res panel photos of the two configurations at link above)
Notes:
-360 with 9/1 pistons, LSE III (single), Airflow Performance fuel injection, ECI Cold Air Sump, custom built 4 into 1 exhaust from
aircraftexhaust.net.
- The fuel nozzles were tuned (AFP makes various sized nozzles) making multiple flights to achieve a GPH spread of 0.1 to 0.3 gph (depending on configuration, etc).
- The ECI cold air sump/4 into 1 exhaust noticeably improved fuel distribuition vs the stock sump/exhaust and allows LOP operations of up to almost 100F LOP in some configurations. With ram air ON, I can't go as far LOP and the gph spread is on the wider half of the 0.1 to 0.3 gph spread. (I would guess that the sump was the bulk of the improvement. Power change was not that significant).
- I now operate almost exclusively LOP as it Dramatically extends range vs ROP, with only a small speed loss.
