We're considering running a 200HP Angle Valve engine modified with an O-360 Sump and carb to fit it in the SC cowl but we want to be able to run Mogas. I did some searching on the forum and I can see where the carbureted 8.50:1 Lycomings are running Mogas without issue, but I didn't see any specifics about running Mogas in higher compression engines. I know there are guys out there with 10:1 and maybe even higher, and I know guys run Mogas with high compression pistons, but I don't know where the break over point is. We'd like to keep the stock 8.70:1 200HP pistons, with the Mogas that is typically available out there, do those of you that have “Been there - doing that”, do you feel Mogas can be run in a 8.70:1 carbureted engine?
Thanks in advance for the input.
