Just put a 320 in your 235 and you have both speeds and GPH burn rates just n=
ot the room...
I routinely get 165 KTS TAS at 6 GPH and 190 at 8.5 GPH at cruise altitude w=
ith electronic ignition, MT prop and Fuel injection..

With gas at $6 per gallon, I am usually pulling back to 6 GPH when we are jo=
y riding which is most of the flying I do . I usually see 28ish nautical mil=
es per gallon at 200ish mph... Not bad.. I know others are getting better nu=
mbers than that even...

At those burn rates, i can manage the cost of flying multiple times per week=
.

Isn't there a saying
"If you don't have the one you want, build the one you've got"
Or something like that...

And....
 I smell a new thread..
The 235 is a better looking airplane than the 320/360.....

Ha ! Ha! Ha!

Just kidding..
Both are nice...

Keep after it...
