John,
I too have built a nice aluminum plenum for my RV-6 (O-360-A1A). Just got
it in the air, but immediately found hot CHT's on climb out. I too suspect my
LASAR and am running tests to determine how much CHT drop there is when I
switch it off. You said your Lightspeed system solved the problem, but was
there also any change in fuel burn?
Pete

I did not see a change in fuel burn, or in true airspeed when I switched.
I only saw the reduction in CHT, and the increase in EGT, both about the same as
when I turned my LASAR off.
I have the optional timing display with the Lightspeed...at 8500 ft, wide open
throttle (23" map), and 2500 rpm, it only shows about 4 degrees advance from baseline.
I don't know what the LASAR system was doing, they consider that information to
be proprietary.
John

They must have told avweb, and I've also gotten this information
directly from them over the phone. Here's a quote from avweb.
"With settings available from zero to 42 degrees before Top Dead Center,
however, the LASAR matches the spark advance to make possible the most
"fire in the hole" from the smallest possible amount of fuel."
And the whole article...
