Opps meant to send that only to Tom Kendal who did the pattern.
Not to worry folks... we got the minor problem solved.
For the new guys we are developing a cast intake manifold that
solves a lot of problems installing the rotary and keeping
the height down so it will fit most cowls.
It also fits turbo models. Here is a picture of the prototype.


BTW After everybody saw Dave Garbers 330 HP 12A Rx3 engine at Sun & Fun
somebody said;
"Why doesn't everybody run a turbo?" :-)

Will the entire manifold be a casting or will it be like the image?  Two
piece casting?  Which throttle body?  Great work guys.

Just the lower part Joe. Too expensive and too heavy to do a complete
180 degree casting. It is designed to use low cost Al pipe bends
from RB Wagner. Will work with any throttle body and or plenum.
