Gray, I definitely could see a huge difference in your Aries between the OS 1.40 and the Mintor 1.70. When you hit the throttle hard after lifting off I could literally see the plane jump forward. Quite impressive!

My 1.70 hit 8200 rpm with 10% magnum, APC 17X12 regular, at the Lubbock contest. It was hot and high, reports were that it was like being at 7200 ft.

Just a few notes on my initial test and break-in on this engine. It has not been installed in my plane as of this writing but I cant wait.
3M 1.70 stock header
10 % Magnum fuel
Bluebird c.f. 2-stroke pipe 24.25" center of head to 1st baffle. Total length of exhaust center of head to end of pipe 31.5"
Test day 98 degrees and about 35%+ humidity
17x12N APC high 8500rpm low 1600rpm
17x13 std APC high 8250rpm low 1500rpm
This is after 5) 16oz tanks of breakin. I broke it in just like the OS, alternating rich to lean during first several tanks.
