Hey guys does anyone know about a turbine conversion on the old mooneys that in my books would make it the ultimate hot rod, how about a diesel conversion just getting ideas .

Thanks Scott, how long have you had the g3 for, and did you install it your self, it seems to be a decent price, did you get the carb temp probe as well.

Hey folks, looking into buying a engine monitor, any pireps out there with regars of a good shop and which brand seem to get you the best bang for your buck!

that's great info, i'm on the prairies, so having to be above 10 thousand is not a need. with the price of avgas in canada 2 bucks a liter i figure, that perhaps climbing, would save me some fuel.

For those of you who fly non-turbo, my plane been a "c" model; any significant performance if you climb above 10" thousand on cross country trips, any advantage with fuel burns, as well what do you guys plan for fuel burns on the "c" model.do you ever lean back when climbing, thanks

Thank for the replys guys, im going to stick with the phillips, as for oil samples sent to the lab, they show good so far. So how about additives for the cam, if you are changing the oil so regulaly would it make much of a difference.
