That should remind us all that airplaneengines do not run on fuel. They
run on money!

Thought you might find it interesting that the Lycoming GSO-480 runs 1219 mmHg at take-off (48"). Continuing the conversation about fuel cooling the engine, this opposed 6 cylinder engine is "only" developing 340 horsepower but at this take-off power setting is burning 52 gallons per hour, versus your 58 GPH with over 100 more horsepower, so in reality you are doing quite well!

Thanks Mark! It confirms my guestimate that the Russians do make good
engines!
