P-ports like this have been used for 30 years in racing

cars. Racing engines get far more abuse than you will ever

find in an aircraft engine. 11,000 RPM 300 HP and constantly

changing RPM with wide open throttle. Hellish temperatures.


If I did do it over it would be essentially the same. A slip

fit and JB weld. You and others are doing a good job of talking

every body out of p-ports with absolutely no experience what so ever.


I could not agree more.   Jerry
