Herb that could happen but also concerned with if there is a generic issue with the engine under warranty I don't want any pushback if we started with the gami's. First 25 hours crucial for cylinder conditioning and I wanted to do it with their injectors.

Likely a good idea to use the factory injectors for break in but I do have another thought.
I don't have GAMI injectors but aren't GAMI's designed for one single engine? I thought when purchasing GAMI's injectors that you send them a bunch of data (EGT's, "GAMI spread", etc.) and then they try to send you injectors to "balance" (for lack of a better term) the cylinders. It may work the first time, may not, but they keep tweaking until they get it right. Pulling the same set of injectors off your old engine and putting them on the new one doesn't sound like the correct action to me. Opinions..?.?.?.... I'm thinking new data will need to be sent to GAMI and a new set of injectors built and installed. I suppose luck could make the old ones correct but for that matter, the factory injectors could get lucky and be perfect as well. Wondering...... Ed Asmus

I am totally with you there Ed-my mechanic is checking with GAMI first to get the specs/serial numbers/paper work etc in order and verified before installing in the new CB6. There is a chance I will have to buy new ones but will see.

Ed
GAMI sends the injectors based on the engine and aircraft you have then you go fly and the numbers are sent to GAMI. GAMI will then send you injectors to fine tune the numbers. I only had to change 2 injectors from the original set they sent me based on the continental engine we all have........

6 cylinder egt / cht
James,
Hope I'm not butting in, I appreciate the photos, but do you have a 6 cylinder cht egt montitor on the rear engine? Not sure I see the probes. Most likely I just can't see them.  Be that as it may, I would think that in order to get the best data for GAMI info, knowing what is going on in each cylinder would quite desirable. Best

looks sweet James, mine is almost complete on the install. had to stop and head south for Sun N Fun but will finish when I get back in a week. No hurry just enjoying the build so far. It's amazing how much time it takes to prep everything. I pickup one part or component and I can't put back on until it's cleaned, degreased and painted. I took the lead from Continental and accented everything gloss black, so far it looks pretty good. Good luck on the project and if you have any problem with the Lord Mounts lining up with the block let me know
