[QUOTE="Brute 23, post: 1528175, member: 6291"] What is the benefit of not running 540? There is no way of knowing with out having the run sheets on that motor. Most motors have an area of use then based on the load they can really dial in the sweet spot for peak efficiency. One thing to consider is potential cooling issues even though with a pretty light load it shouldn't be. I don't really see the benefit of running a lower RPM. I doubt the fuel consumption or wear and tear really amount to much. You probably have more to risk going against the recommended RPM than to gain trying to do it differently. [/QUOTE]
