Does anyone use some kind of totalizer or flow indicator to get a better
fuel quantity indicating system? I have seen one put out by Electronics
International but haven't a clue as to accuracy, ease of installation, etc.
Or perhaps there is a way to make the stock system more accurate(?).

A lot of guys have the JPI FS-450. A little more expensive than the EI, but
very popular.

Dan,
I agree with Steve. The JPI FS-450 has worked very well for me, great
accuracy and features. When I bought mine two years ago it was only
$450.00. They're over $700.00 now, so I wouldn't wait if you really want
one.

I installed an Electronics International FPL5 in my 79 tiger about 3 years
ago. Actually got a 337 approved to remove the existing fuel pressure gauge
and the wet line in the cockpit and use the FPL5 as the primary pressure
gauge. You can adjust the K factor of the unit a few flights to obtain near
perfect results. For example, the FPL5 is routinely within 2 - 3 tenths
of a gallon to actual fuel consumed.

I went to the Reno Air Races this last weekend. At the Lycoming tent, they
had a mock-up of a roller cam for the O360. The really sweet thing about
Lycoming making it avialable (they can machine your engine case to fit the new
lifters) is that a roller cam can be made to put out all sorts of horsepower or
torque at any rpm or for any range you want.

I was up there looking for the Lycoming tent and didn't find it. Of course,
I also had on shorts and was driving, so not enough beer to calm the shivers
and help me concentrate...
