Isn't this the same as Lynn Hanover's 25 year old
Cooling system design? ..............If not where does
it differ?

I don't agree with the restricter in this diagram. I think it better
to up the overall system pressure rather than use a restricter to
increase the pressure in the just the block. I also think it unnecessary
to have two pressure tanks in series. I think the Stant pressure
cap would work fine on the propane bottle alone. Simpler and lighter.
We usually don't have room for the implied extra height of this system.

  My interpretation aligns perfectly with your description Paul. Here's the
best picture I can find that shows my home made "swirl pot". Somewhat
height limited so maybe not as good as what Lynn has in the race car, but
its light and should be better than nothing.

That cowl is looking slick Mike.

Chuck Stewart, Mike is in San Diego and I am sure he would not mind
your taking pictures of his very photogenic Mazda rotary powered RV4
