Congratulations on your Mooney.  Go to the download section of this forum and find the POH section.  Download the manual you need and verify it is appropriate for your serial/year E.   See page 21.   I attached a pic of my POH showing speeds.

For a cruise climb speed, I will usually climb at the highest speed that will give me the climb speed I’m after, in my J that’s usually about 110 kts

In cold weather I’d be a lot more likely to climb at Vy, but down here it’s never really cold and there are no mountains etc to climb over, but as your in S Fl cyl head temp will be a concern at times and the additional speed really helps there.

Here is a cheat sheet I use for transition training.  Got a little corrupted coming to the iPad...but you get the idea.

I find 130mph is a great cruise climb speed. Engine stays cool. You are moving along faster than spam can traffic at max cruise.... Climb rate not decreased that much at all. Decreasing slowly as performance drops off in hot/high/heavy.... approaching 10,000' for example. Adjust depending on winds aloft/turbulence, etc.

@Josue,

did you find the 1977 version of the M20E’s POH?

Make sure you get the most recent version to supplement the year of your airplane version...

The POHs of the time got a little more info each year...

pp thoughts only, not a CFI...

Best regards,
