Is that the HP you have Perry?

There is a plot on my website at

http://www.mickaircraft.com/duckt.htm

that shows what I believe to be my HP vs. RPM curve.
The '86 NA engine I have is rated at 146 HP at 6500 RPM.
Redline is 7000 RPM.

With my current prop I'm only operating 4200 static to ?
cruise.

Ideally it would be nice to get to 5000 static and 6000
cruise.

This HP plot was fabricated, scaling an older Mazda plot
to 146 HP at 6500 rpm, so if anyone has better data,
please forward it.

Perry,  did you ever use the performance monitor to calculate horsepower?  I
thought that was its most  useful function but I never heard you mention
using it in that mode.
