KR> Corvair EGT

[Dan Heath]

I installed mine 4" from the flange and at 2950 rpm, ran it around 1450.  If
it went above that, I richened it.  The engine runs good lean of peak, but I
did not make a habit of running it there.

What EGT readings are a good range for the 2700 Corvair engine?

I'm not sure that there is a good range.  It all depends on thermocouple 
location, how lean you can make it run, etc.  My thermocouples are 4" 
below the flange (my engine has flanges rather than the pressed in 
tubes), and I've seen it close to 1500F.  Leaned way back it drops 
considerably, along with CHTs.  About all you can say about the EGT 
gauge is that it's a good way to lean your engine out for cruise, but 
not as good as an air/fuel meter.  Some planes don't even have markings 
on the EGT gauge.  It's all relative...
