That's probably about 60 %. It goes faster at higher power but the difference in trip times makes so little difference. Fuel flow is about 16.2 to 16.9 gph. This is true from about FL18 to FL26. Regarding the baffling, the way the factory sends the baffling, the front upper 1/4 of #5 and #6 are somewhat more uncovered than the straight up to down exposure of the nested remaining cylinders. Maybe its my ignorance, but I thought the 15 or so degrees of CHT difference might be corrected by making all 6 see the same amount of area for cooling air. I appreciate your expertise.
