Have used both RA & Mazda apex seals.   No RA seals in production for Renesis yet so those are stock. Some prototype RA Renesis seals are in a couple of race cars for evaluation.  So far so good.

  I should say that my 1800+ hours is total and the EGT's are only up at 1840 during takeoff and initial climb.  Never over-cooked a seal or spring though.

Hi Steve,
   When you say your EGTs are too high, what do you consider too hot?   When at WOT on takeoff mine run 1840 F which sounds high but after 1800+ hours I'm convinced that this isn't too hot.   In cruise I lean it down to as low as 1520.   My exhaust system is 321 SS, nothing exotic.
