David,
Glad to hear from you..........Reminded me to ask you the same questions about your
turboed 13B as I did John Slade..........
Would like to know your typical EGT's and MP (boost) at takeoff , climb and cruise
and if you lean "lean of peak" (or lean at all)...........

Interesting Idea, though you still probably want some other crankcase vent functional in case the injection ports don't suck enough. BTW, VERY little oil, if any, comes out the vent unless there is something wrong with one of the side seals. probably best to just plug the oil injection and vent the crank case.

I've not provided for clean way to vent the crankcase, yet. And I'm also not going to use the oil injection ports. As I understand it, the injection ports should always be at a negative pressure. Would it be a crazy idea to have the ports pull the dirty air out of the crankcase and not spread it across my airplane's belly?
