As with all engines if you overheat them you do damage the higher the temp the more damage the overheating problems need to be addressed in some cases a lip at the bottom of the engine cowl may be the answer but don't keep flying it and ignoring high temps valve seats are fitted by heating the head they can come out the same way

T That's not rag and tube it's stick and cloth I think there would be a market for electric powered 95-10 on the lines of the spyder what we are doing now is reinventing GA aircraft and it appears all the same rules and regulations to go with it.many of our pilots have never known what it's like to fly a single seat rag and tube or even a 2 seat thruster type aircraft
