Default RE: CH Ignition conversion on G26

Don't expect too low and reliable an idle plus with such a light prop until the engine has some more run time on it. That top end rpm of 6,400 is low for that engine / prop combo, and I suspect that your ignition timing and carb adjustments might need some fine tuning, or the tach used might be off. On a Zinger 16x8 prop max. rpm should be in 7,000 plus region running on the very restricted stock muffler.

I was thinking that number is low also. My SV26 with spin that prop over 8,000 with it's stock pitts. I think the G26 is a stronger engine. How much is an Abell RC muffler worth over the stock one?
