The STC only allows full power, which is 300 hp, not 310 like the same engine in 340. 38"@2,600rpm for 2 minutes. Then 34"@2200rpm for max continuous (which ironically is 225 hp). The other interesting factor I discovered is the AD for the engine back in 2009 instructing to NOT operate at rpm's below 2,300 for cruise. If I can get a chance to talk to a Super SkyRocket pilot I can ask if they use something other than the 2,200 which the Riley POH calls for.
