I finally got around to doing a fuel consumption check at gross weight and max continuous rpm after installing the Catto prop and here's what I came up with:
2600 RPM, 177 mph (gps), 4.8 gph (full rich) (standard slick mags)
(36.8 mpg is very nice with fuel prices at $5.50+ and rising.)
Some other numbers that I got was:
2100 RPM, 145 mph
2850 RPM, 203 mph
Many thanks to Van's for an efficient and fun airplane.
