You run 15% nitro and 18% synthetic in your Evo 777? Heck, I run 5% nitro and 6% lube (11% of which is castor). It’s an earlier UMS/Seidel 770, but basically the same engine, just not bored out. ...

I had a Flair Stearman and was planning to put an Evo 999 (9 cylinder 99cc) in it. It could work, but the 777 is probably a better match for a 90” span biplane.
