    Yes I think I recall he said he would. They can use the cash flow.
    He may still be in Paris at the airshow as he was taking a train
    from Geneva
    to Paris Friday afternoon after my morning visit. I am sure they
    have not figured
    out a price yet as they just received the machined castings.

Beautiful work as is all the stuff I've seen from Mistral. Have they
done any of their 20B stuff yet Paul? The biggest problem with a good
manifold like that on a 20B will be keeping it under 300 HP on the RV-10!

Right now they are focused on getting the engine to develop more power
on diesel fuel.

The turbo development has also been delayed as the Piper will have the NA
engine at OSH. Here are some shots of the dyno lab. The large copper tube
on the right mechanically transmits knock sounds from the engine to the dyno operator.
