RPM turned by YS-140L on Mezlik 16-12?

You may also want to try 16x11 on your L, you should get better vertical
than with 16x12 (either APC or Mejzlik).  Your rpm should be similar or
better to what you getting on the 15x12W.  It really depends on your plane,
its weight, drag, and other.  On my setup 15x12W was better for a more
constant speed while the 16x11 had better vertical pull and that is what I
am using on my L.

	Well If you're getting 8300-8500 on 25% with the 15-12W that's about
all I ever got out of an a 140L.......I have never run the Mezlik props but
the 16-12 APC was too much load for an "L" unless I was running 30%+
	 
	 
	I think your motor is probably just fine....Another thing peak it
out and run it just about 300 rpm short of peak. This will be on the rich
side. But it will help keep it cool. 
	 
	If you want more power got to some Cool Power 30% heli performance
fuel....The "L" will like it. In fact it will love it just like the
DZ's.....
	 
	 
	I'm using this fuel in everything now. Horizon recommends this fuel
for the Saito motors...and I'm even running it sport planes with
.46's......This is really good fuel...I don't know of anybody that has tried
it and not liked it.

		Oops, forgot a couple of key details!
		 
		Running 25% Cool Power - at sea level.
		 
		I did run an APC 15-12W - it was tach'ing about 8300-8400 on
the ground.  I'm getting much better performance out of the Mezlik 16-12,
even though it's only turning ~7800-8000 on the ground.
		 
		The engine has fewer than 2 dozen flights on it since a
Performance Specialities (Verano/Shadel) rebuild.  (It didn't have much more
than that number before the rebuild, either.  Rebuild was done because I
sent it in with a complaint of difficulty starting, not because of crash
damage).
