T27 is my first stop Eastbound. trippy little place. They do have mogas (as of 2008). Their runway is half paved, half dirt, something like 10,000 feet long and 5' wide with a bend in the middle. (I exaggerate of course)

however, you have to take it with a grain of salt and call first. For example, I called Bob Hope airport at Burbank and found that although they list Mogas, it is only available for ground equipment and they will not pump it into airplanes.

Bill,
What is your source for airports selling mogas? I would sure like to find something in my neck of the woods (Central Texas).
Mark S.is a hint of roughness to the engine. I can then lean a little and the roughness clears up. For my test flight I leaned until my EFT came back up to where I normally limit it (890 deg C). But if I then add 5 more inches of MAP, there is still a hint of roughness even at 890 deg and I get the sense that it wants to be leaned a little more. But I am afraid to do that... We are talking 45" MAP and 7300 RPM here (185 KTS indicated (Vne) and climbing at 500 fpm).
