Thanks for that, but my prior was BG ( not BC - before Gami)
Off topic, but in the '60s, TAA in Australia had a small fleet of A-80s,
they did a complete certification of T/O performance at METO power, to get a
bit more life of the IGSO-540-B1As. They also decided to make more baggage
space by burying all the avionics inside modified leading edges of the
wings, then proceeded to operate some in Australia wettest areas. You can
guess the rest.
Cheers,
Bill Hamilton

Bill,
Admitting no first hand experience, I did watch my mechanic/restoration
guru Richard Cam dial in a set of Gami's on 2 different QueenAirs. The temp
problems were eliminated, and the fuel flows reduced by 10%. It's still
underpowered, but not the problem it once was. The fit of the cowlings, and
baffle seals got a lot of attention as well. While the Gami's have not been
fitted to my IGO-540's, they have indicated they will work with me to fit a
set. He's in St. Augustine (Aeroquest Services) if you want the report
first hard. He has a lot of first hand experience wit the Mr. RPM
conversions as well.
Good Luck
C

Folks,
I am soliciting opinions on the 400hp direct drive conversion to the
680F/FL/FLP.
My only experience of (roughly) the same engine was on the 400 Comanche and
the Excalibur conversion to the Queenair A80, neither were particularly
happy experiences, with quite a few problems with a big spread of CHT.
Regards,
Bill Hamilton
