The Menz 22-8 turned around 7200, will try again tomorrow with a few more props..
the stock chainsaw muffler is quiet but really cuts down on the rpm...
that 20-5 PK test was just for kicks, a 20 inch prop is way small for this engine..
A sticker on the handle says max rpm is 13,800...

Hello all

Thanks for the info RCIGN. Can we also get some thrust #'s with the prop's?

thanks, Randy

RE: Poulan
 
I have no way to test thrust unless the engine is on an airplane..The owner is coming by tomorrow to take it home, so maybe when he gets it on a plane he'll put some numbers on here...
A good G62 turns the same prop about 6200....The numbers will vary, it's cold and 6800 feet altitude here...
