    Paul, take a look at these bell mouths that are intended for the
    second edition of my intake.  I bought them from a company in
    Australia called " The Velocity of Sound."   They were $16.00 ea.
    Unfortunately the shipping via mail was $25.00   They have many
    shapes, styes (different neck lengths and sizes.  Check them out at
    www.velocity-of-sound.com

    Nice.

They do look nice.  One of us should just order a bunch & resell them to
other builders as the need comes up, to amortize the shipping costs.

The only problem with the bell mouths on my slide throttle intake is
they are not detachable in any way -- thus I am in somewhat of a quandry
as to how to build an air intake box that seals nicely around the
intakes.   I've more or less resigned myself to having a 2-piece box
that I screw together so I can wrap it around the bell mouths.

Speaking of the air intake box - am I trying to feed it with ram-air, or
am I going to draw air from within the cowling?  I have noted on a
number of recent pictures of rotary installs that most seem to have a
nice air filter & draw air from within the cowling.

You can always use a small grinder and grind them off Mark.
for best results fore go the filter. Your airport is not dusty
is it?
