I did flight testing extensively with my VM1000, and found that I had a wide spread on EGT peaks. I sent data to GAMI and they made me a custom set of GAMI-Jectors (about $1000) which I installed. All EGTs now peak almost simultaneously, which allows me to comfortably run at 65% power LOP: 2500rpm, 27.8"MP, 17.4GPH. I lose about 8kts running LOP, but my range is much improved. Have been set up like this for a year, and engine seems to love it (580hr TT). Doug Johnson > We normally operate around 18 to 20,000ft at 28inches and 2500RPM.
