Subject: Light weigh intake system

But, it looks like it will  weigh less than half of my old manifold system,
a lot cleaner and the fuel injectors away from the exhaust.  Waiting for
more resin to pour the second casting - we know about those things, don't we
{:>)  One of the photos Mvc-009.jpg shows the bubbles caused by the
exothermal reaction.

 Also, the casting does not look smooth yet, because I have some bondo type
filler stuff on it that I will sand down to a hopefully glass smooth
surface.  Also about 1" (or more) of the top of the throttle body flat plate
mounting area will come off.

Hopefully, I will have it completed this week and be flying with it within
another week.

Best Regards

Ed Anderson
