Except that the fuel burn will vary if you have good ram air recovery.
Maintaining a given EGT reference, say 50 LOP, you're likely to burn then same
as you would about 2-3k ft lower, but go faster as well. Lycoming probably
assumes very poor ram air effect on their charts, as all certified aircraft with
IO-360/320's don't go faster than 140 ktas.
