Paul,

         The prop disc on the Limo I 43" from the firewall.  The E shaft is
in line with the top longerons.  The Limo is deeper than a standard Long
fuselage.  Temp went up to 38 F, so I glassed the inner sides of the scoop
which ties the whole thing together.  I was thinking of taking the headers
straight back and dumping it into an augmenter behind the engine.  I might
start with the stock manifold and a short pipe to get it airborn.  In any
case the muffler augmenter would have to light because it is aft.  Don't
know if it is doable.  Maybe a ring type muffler discharging around the
prop using the aft end of the cowl as a venturi.  Just dreaming.

Joe
