I finally invested in a CHT gauge. This is the one I got.
(IMG:http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/inpages/inmisc/CH130.jpg) I wanted to get a temperature compensating model. VDO CHT gauges read high or low depending on the ambient temperature in the cabin. And as a bonus, this model is about $15 cheaper than the VDO. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) It should be here Saturday, and then I get to install it. It will be interesting to see what my head temps are running at with 9.5:1 compression. I wanted to get a baseline of CHT and oil temps before I pull the motor and upgrade the cam. |

Looks cool Mark.
I like the temperature compensation I've been meaning to get a CHT gauge for myself. Do you know if it comes with the sender and wires? |
