I like ROP for the
power...


Then why did you buy the Gamis?

...and because gas is cheaper then cylinders.


The setting you use, peak power, is the worst of all for cylinder stress
and produces the very highest CHTs.

That's what I was thinking, Dan.

My understanding of "everything else" and GAMIjectors is that you run normal
stuff 50-100 degrees, well rich, of peak, to avoid excess heat and
detonation, or you do "the big pull" on the mixture, as the GAMI-types call
it, to get the mixture quickly past the danger zone around peak EGT, then
run GAMIs LOP and get the benefits of cooler temps and fuel economy at
little loss of performance or efficiency.

"A tiny bit ROP" scares the hell out of me, especially now that my Comanche
260 is having a fresh Mattituck overhaul installed. I'll surely not run it
like that.
