The engine will burn plenty clean enough ROP.
Stress levels are well within limits ROP
Cylinder temps are well within limits ROP
CO? So what! Goes out the exhaust.

The only advantage to running LOP is an engine that runs at a lower BSFC.
Which increases range, not so much by decreasing fuel consumption, but by
slowing the airplane down closer to best range speed.

Walter Atkinson is a dentist. He once told me that my IO-520D was more
like
a Wright 3350 "Cyclone" engine than a O-470U. He is in well over his head.

more than the guys with dirt under their nails. I'm impressed!!!

And your qualifications are, what, again?
