"He had it pitched for high speed cruise. It was a pretty efficient
combo but the high pitch seemed to be loading up the engine making quite
hot."
I'm wondering if Owen means it was pitched to allow the engine to turn up
at a very high RPM, thus causing the plane to go faster, thus

I am most interested in standard KR2 with a 2180 but for comparative purposes
as long as I can compare like data on like simular KR aircraft I will be fine.

If a KR flys with a cruise prop and experiences a "fouled plug" or some
thing that drops the RPM. The question is will that KR have enough
power to sustain flight or even climb? When is to much pitch to much
for safety margins?

Obviously that depends on the engine. I'
This being from a VW guy. revmaster 2100. I lost one cylinder (rocker went
off valve stem) I was able to lean it up enough for level flight. There was
not a lot left after that. I landed at the first open airport, Lampasas
Texas. DA was about 2500 feet

A KR-2 with a 2180 and only one on board will vibrate, but will fly fine with
one cylinder not working. When two of them go at the same time right after
lifting off from a touch and go it will climb about 150 FPM and get questions
