My RV-7 has an IO-360, lightspeed ignition and Hartzell constant speed prop. I'm looking for a chart with RPM & MP & %power that I can use to set up cruise flight efficiently. My Lycoming & Hartzell books don't help. Any help out there? Greg

Get your hands on owners manual for 200hp Mooney, Cardinal, Arrow for a
starting point.
Generally rpm/100+MP=49 will put you pretty close to 75%, give or take
3%. Fuel flow ROP will be about 10.5-11. Lean of peak figure 9.5-10gph.
Make sure with Hartzell the rpm recommendations/limitations for your
specific engine/crank and prop combination. Many have restricted areas.
Especially the A1A engine with the more desirable non-counterweighted
crank, at least if aerobatics are contemplated. (My Mooney with that
combination has restricted range from 2000-2350)

GPS, a fuel flow meter and some cruising around will give you the best numbers..

Parallel valve or angle valve IO-360?
