Default RE: DL-50 engine

Lou, thanks for the tunning info

I forgot to add that i opened up the cowl in the front. Now most of the cylider is getting hit with incoming air. Before, only the top of the cylinder was getting fresh air. Anyway, the engine was running alot cooler. Last week when i landed we temp gunned it at 275 just after we killed the engine. Today we were getting 164 just after shutdown. It was a few degrees cooler today also. The engine showed substantial power increases. This thing is a rocket.
