    Mark,  you did an excellent job. I'm envious. Keep us updated on the
    testing and make
    a heat shield between the intake and exhaust pipes. I run my engine
    at night at full
    bore and the exhaust pipes where glowing white.  Even my SS heat
    shield was red on
    the outside.

Buly,
Thanks for the words of encouragement.  Right now, the EC-2 is on its
way back to Tracy for the "snubber upgrade".  Also, I'm
converting over from the old style CAS to the Renesis trigger wheel
CAS.  That requires an upgrade to the EC-2.  The CAS upgrade was on the
back burner, but I decided to go ahead and have it done while the EC-2
was at RWS.  All I need now is a connector for the sensor.

I had debated on whether or not to put a heat shield between the intake
and exhaust.  It wouldn't be too difficult to do and would probably help
keep the intake charge cool.  I'll see what I can come up with.  Thanks
for the suggestion.

Mark

BTW Buly, I found your hangar. I might not be able to read or remember my own
telephone number but I am still one heck of a detective. Hangar H :) Across the street
from Ferrer(s?) This attachment pic was a clue. Your hangar is to the right
in this picture. Not easy. That is one big airport with a lot of airplanes.
 I'll see you tomorrow.
