My 0-200 is tired with 2200+ hours SMOH and is stock the way it was removed from a C-150. Right now the prop lets it peak out on rpm at 2800 and I'm comfortable with that for now. I hope to get hundreds more hours from the engine before tear down so I don't want to push it too hard. I know the 0-200 will rev much higher but I figure there are only so many revolutions left in this one and I don't want to use them up any faster than necessary. Larry Flesner
