ok I have a few questions. So knot-right says they will run on bio-deisel is this correct is there a loss in power if this is the case? If 6's are the weak link how weak? Does everyone running turbines have bpm's or arnesons?

can run on jet-A, kerosine, diesel, gas/diesel mix or bio-diesel the power is related to the BTU output of the fuels, but of 1st concern is maint. proper pyro-temps you DO NOT want to over heat a turbine ! #6's are at their torque limits that is where the torque meter control comes into play limiting torque thru the drive line Gerry, James, Dennis or some of the other turbine guys w/experience could go into this deeper ! G-how u-doin dude ? have the rinse system finished ?

KNOT-RIGHT

Jay I think you really are becoming a Turbine GEEK
Looks like you can retain all the Bull Sh@t i spew

Yes the t53 has a torque metering system This is a hydromechanical pressure gauge that is dash mounted.
This actualy measures the output torque at any given throttle
range. Basicaly for those of us that run the weak #6 drive
it allows us to measure the amount we are applying to the drive when we are on the sticks.
The big guys like Geico run Shaft drives.

Anyone want a pair of sixes traded for a pair of Arnesons
ASD8,s????


The water injection is complete Herring 38,s are on and we
are Ready.

Stop by Saturday if ya can.
Oh yeah got some new brake pads with some race compund
stops the rotor within 4 seconds. The other compound was just to soft.

g-WHAT don't bust me up thought every-thing on " hear" was at least 110-120 % accurate. u-talkin 5/3 oh-well it's 5/4 now, any pics or video ? -weather n/g anyways- ! say hi to: Ken, Art, Mike and all. buzzzzzzzzz ya soon. J ---
