Yep, flew the 85 two weeks ago out here in Oz, had a 70mm BMB pipe and turned a 28 x 10 Mej @ 6500 rpm. AWESOME engine, it was in a 2.6 c-arf extra 260. The engine is now on its way back to USA for display at Toledo show.

Here you go, but from the numbers this thing is turning its probably a really good option for a 2.6 size model. In a 2.3 it would probably be insane!
