Hottest Cylinder

I am planning on installing an EGT gauge real soon and was wondering what is the hottest cylinder in a B18C5?

13.2 @ 105mph!!!

Re: Hottest Cylinder (Type Goch)

Because the #3 cylinder gets (the most) heat soaked. Think about the firing order:

1-3-4-2

The number 3 cylinder fires, then right beside it, #4 fires, and the right beside it #2 fires, so it (#3) never gets the same cooling time as the other 3 cylinders.
