Can anyone tell me what is the maximum temp allowed for the 320.

I am seeing the engine peak at around 1450 using the big pull method. I skrew it in 2 turns but I dont see much of a drop on the guage.

No Max EGT Normally Aspirated

Typically there is no maximum EGT for normally aspirated engines. Max EGT is applicable for turbocharged engines because turbos have a maximum allowable turbine inlet temperature (TIT).

It is usually best to ignore the absolute value of EGT readings since that value can vary significantly from variations in probe location and position. EGT readings are best used as a reference measurent to determine where you are running your engine (mixture wise) in relation to your peak EGT reading.
