My 320 climbs at 370-390 deg F at 120 kt, cruise shows 340-360 deg F, sometimes 370, ROP. Oil temp is always 175-185. Climb 2500 RPM and 24-25 MAP, cruise 2450/22. It has a plenum above cylinders fins and NACA dedicated and straight to oil cooler. This is at Brazilian temps, 20 to 30 deg C.

Not saying it wouldn't be nice if it ran cooler but again 1700 hours on the engine and she still flies. I live in Southern California so summer is very hot.

380 is OK 415 is not, can you richen to bring down under 400? I would suggest reducing power to keep it under 400 until you fix the problem, most likely your baffling. Be sure you are sealed.

Subject: [LML] Lancair 360 CHT during climb
Hello
I am a new Lancair 360 owner and I have a question about CHT during climbing At
full power after take off, CHT 's are between 380 and 415 oF, is it normal for
a 360?
Thanks for the answers
