It sure shows what a ****TY job Cessna did when they "designed" the

Interesting, Mike. Where did you add the baffling?


It also shows how POOR the mass-flow balance between the front and
rear cyclinders is on the Continental O470R. Due to the brain-dead
induction plumbing, the front two cyl get much less fuel/air than the
other four.

How do you tell the difference between fuel/air QUANTITY and fuel/air RATIO?
