Hi Paul,
I have been working on adapting the injector holders to fit the
manifold. Since it is necessary to
cut off excess material on the flanges, for those (like me) that don't
have a mill, I have found
that a Table Saw with Carbide blade does a fine job of cutting off the
excess material on the
flanges so you can snuggle them together and (almost) line up with the
holes from the manifold.

Enclosed are three pictures showing the progress. The castings are quite
nice, but are not void
free. As you polish them, small pits will open up, but are minor and not
an issue.

Look good Bill.

BTW I figured out a away to accommodate hose and hose clamp connections.
Stager them. Weld short pipe extensions to the small injector holder
and extend the large pipe bends.

Good show Bill. I think my money is on you for the first rotary powered KIS
aircraft (sorry Paul :)  )  Hope to see you at Sun N Fun - Vance

Hey I don't mind. Bill is doing an excellent job. I am too busy providing
parts. Wait till you see this new water pump.
