I am soon going to be installing a Hartzell C2YR-1BF/F74972 and I contacted Les
@ Hartzell to talk about any restrictions that may apply to my setup.
I have a carbed 180hp O-360 with a Mag/Pmag. The Pmag is set to run on the B curve.
Les mentioned that the C2YR-1BF/F74972 does not have any restrictions on an 180hp O-360 with Mags and I got the default answer that they have not tested the prop with Pmags or other electronic ignitions that have timing advance and therefore he recommend that I follow the 200hp restrictions.
Here are the 200hp restrictions:
"Continuous operation is prohibited above 24? manifold pressure between 2350-2550 RPM."
My questions...
Does anyone have a similar setup and if so what if any restrictions do you limit your aircraft to?
Is the 200hp restriction above really an issue in normal use with an RV7?
Do you have any other comments regarding this topic that would be good to know/consider?
