Had occasion to use the O-470-R commercially, Cessna "freighter" flying fish around Norcal. 13gph was fine with me and I operated 4000-9500.
I never understood the pilot who kept voluminous records in an effort to squeeze out a pint or two less. Trying to compete as a bugsmasher with the parameters of flight of the pro is silly.
