Looks like at 350 we better stop flying.

climb
With
my limited patience, I cannot seem to find the strength vs temp charts for
various aluminum alloys. Here is some data for
2124-T851.
As
I remember the cast alloy for our cylinder heads is worse than this and the
curve gets steeper as you increase the temp past 400
degF.
Look
at the second chart carefully and then consider cruising with 420 degF
CHT’s.
