Max rpm, Rusty, but I also observe the = EGT=20 - if it starts to lower then I know I am starting to  run = richer=20 than best power setting and reduce mixture setting.

Fuel flow actually shows = greater that=20 180HP, but I like being a bit conservative in any claims in that = area.  I=20 have had fuel flow of 20 gph on a cold day and with that denser=20 air.   
 
Hi Ed,
 
When you measure these fuel flows, are = you doing it=20 at a mixture setting that gives max rpm, max EGT, or=20 ???    
 
Thanks,
