I see that your Tiger cyl #2 had the same "symptoms" even though using a carburetor (assumed because of "carb heat box" not "alternate air"). With respect to EGT performance, I would say the basic cause is the same -- a leaner air/fuel ratio than other cylinders. In an injected engine, it seems there are many ways to get that combination, some of which are to have an imbalance in the fuel delivery system, air induction system or, as we found, in the injector environment itself (fuel delivery?). I should have said that Tom's injected 360 has the throttle body mounted below/rear of the oil pan with a hi-pressure slow-speed ram air plenum and my 320 has the oil pan mod so that the throttle body is mounted on the forward face of the oil pan -- straight hi-speed ram air, no bends or filter before the throttle body. The differences in these induction systems led us away from suspecting an imbalance there, although one may exist. As you found that manipulating the airflow around cylinder #2 can affect its' CHT, we also believe some baffling changes coud be effective once the cylinders are more evenly producing power. Scott Krueger PS The paragraph stating 120 degrees lean of peak is in error, it should be 120 degrees RICH of peak. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LML website: http://members.olsusa.com/mkaye/maillist.html LML Builders' Bookstore: http://www.buildersbooks.com/lancair Please remember that purchases from the Builders' Bookstore assist with the management of the LML.
