In my opinion here as well. RPM's don't mean anything to me, but I will use that as a BASELINE figure. I don't totally rely on RPM's as a sure thing. If I don't like how the current prop/engine combo flies my airplane, I change props. Or go on the recommendations from other fellows who have the same engine as I do, and their expierences with a certain prop.

Jack, good report. Quite interesting on the carbon build up with the Amsoil 100:1. I ran Dominator 50:1 and it gunked a 100cc up really quick!! Well, in 5 gallons. So, I have since finished using that stuff, and gone back to an oil that I have used for several years!! Golden Spectro. I try to mix it 64:1. No leaner than that. It is a personal thing with me and going with a THIN mix!!!

All in all, sounds like we have another engine out there that will be good!!
