He says they generate 200HP. Larry PS? Does MP and rpm with a known prop give enough data to know power? 30" @2700 rpm? I seem to remember extrapolating off engine power charts. -----Original Message----- From: Zavatson, Christopher J (US SSA) [mailto:Christopher.Zavatson@baesystems.com] Sent: Tuesday, September 11, 2007 8:39 AM To: lml@lancaironline.net Subject: RE: [LML] FW: [LML] 360 engine baffling installation Larry, Do you know what your actual power output is? I assume you're not stock given all that racing. I am also a big advocate of RTV. It makes a difference. 3.5 inches is probably near the lower practical limit on inlet size for a 360. The mass flow to achieve comfortable (340-380 degF) full throttle cruise CHTs brings the inlet velocity ratio up pretty high (~1.0), relying solely on internal pressure recovery i.e. good diffusers.
