Hi Folks,

This weekend I took some photos of a 13b installation in a polywagon.The installation is done by
Jan Kemp.
First  photo;
  Right hand view, Note the header tank mounted on top of the engine.
Second  photo;
 The radiator mounted on the belly. Note, no fairings leading air in or out of the radiator. Runs
cold even with full power ground runs.with a ambient of 27degrees C.
Third photo;
Left view, The carburetor is from a Cessna 175, the manifold is split from the carburetor base to
the intake tubes to prevent heavier fuel-air mixture being thrown to the outer side, causing the
outer rotor to run rich.and yes the exhaust is noisy.
Fourth photo:
Note the offset (1degree)  And about the lack off a carrier bearing ,Jan recons his previous
project had a rabbit engine, off which the bearings are a third in size to that of a 13b bearing,
and that ran fine for ten years.
