Hey Tracy (and others)
Setting up for engine first run dyno
(finally). Couple of things. Is your friend who makes wiring
harnesses making them for the 20B/Lancair combo? Going to test the
water and oil systems for pressure. 30 pounds on water, and 100 pounds
on oil?

progress......

66mm is not oversize so I'm surprised with no increase in
power after 2/3 throttle. Never hesitate to play with the
mixture control when testing. It is the fastest way to educate
yourself on the effects of mixture on performance, fuel burn, EGT curve,
etc. You can't hurt a normally aspirated 13B with mixture (assuming
ignition timing in the ballpark) so there's nothing to loose
either.
If that top speed was in IAS at 8500 you're not doing too
bad anyway.

Tracy, 66
mm ford mustang throttle body, I believe suggested by you. To busy
flying to notice all the numbers. Mostly concentrating on flying
and temps. Alt 8500 ft, 40 Oat, No idea about manifold pressure.
Mixture set at mid range, but not really looked at. We have
had a lot of weather here the last few days, but is looking better
toward the end of the week. I got the diagram and printed it and
realize it is a fix, not a solution. I'll get to the airport
tomorrow and draw a diagram of my electrical system, with lengths,
positioning, etc. I've never tried running without the main buss off.
I'll run it and see if there is a differance with only the
Essential buss on. Thanks for all the thoughts, all of
you.
Don
