I am though, more inclined to believe that this difference in flames is almost invisible or not noticeable when comparing them with fuel injected engines of the same era (see my reply to W32Blaster below).

it's a dirty business, hands always covered in grease, oil and cuts, but when you feel 1650HP growling in your guts, swinging that big propeller 10ft in front of you, 12 cylinders furiously roaring in all their power.. well it's well worth the dirty hands

..The truth is that I like physics but I've always been rubbish in maths (I always lose a + or a - somewhere..).. LOL
