today, playing "test pilot," with new rings to seat in the A65's new cylinders. Nothing broke, or fell off, and the 65 pulled me along at WOT (~2300 rpm) for a half hour without skipping a beat. IAS was 100+. Looks like we used 1/4 quart of oil. I'm confident she's good to fly and will try for 3+ hours tomorrow, WOT.

That is all. Carry on.

How many innocent, unsuspecting women,children and puppies did you endanger with your reckless behavior?
I weep for humanity.

Just curious. Will you test the compression again in the next few hours, or just let it ride?
Glad to read it's going well.

I did the same thing yesterday. Changed #1 cylinder in my O-320-E3D. 1 1/2 hour flight at 2450rpm. CHT around 300F all is good...:)
