Hey Ned, what it is . . . .
I've done a lot of messing around with the front baffles, trying to redistribute the air to the rear cylinders. The #1 cylinder on my cowling is the hottest during climb and pretty close to the others in cruise. On Jeff's plane, we modified the front baffle again to reduce the CHT in climb on #1 without changing the temp in cruise. Still playing with that one.
#2 CHT runs the coolest (with my cowling) in climb and cruise. #4 is in line with #1 & #3 in cruise. I am looking for a way to either cool #1, 3, & 4 or warm up #2 a little.
Typical CHT is in the range of 390 to 410 in full power leaned cruise. Jeff's CHTs are in the range of 360 to 380 in his normal cruise condition. Both using JPIs.
