I think that he used some gooseneck drain pipes for his intake manifold. If it works, it works, I guess. Glad he is going with one of Tracy's redrives.

George was on here way back in the early days. He got pissed at me when I told him 
his stock Mazda gear box was dangerous and went off in a huff. The sad part about it
he was selling plans to that ill advised approach. As I recalled he showed up
at Sun & Fun early on once but then I never saw the airplane again.

Never the less he is an entertaining speaker and I always enjoy listening to
his talks.

His early manifold consisted of a 3 inch square aluminum extrusion filled with
foam in place foam. He then hollowed out the runners and bolted a carb to the
top side of the extrusion. The extrusion was then bolted to the block.
at first he was very disappointed with the performance but after he removed the
air filter and supplied it with cold ram air he reported it worked to his satisfaction.
