Nice pictures Buly. Notice Buly uses two constant tension hose clamps
and silicon hose everywhere. Not cheap but well worth it. You don't
want to crash your airplane due to cheap automotive hose and 75 cent
worm drive hose clamps. These pictures are from when Buly had a stock
89 Mazda RX7 turbo. Since removed until Dave Leonard gets some hours
on the modified version. He modified the back cover on the turbo to
attach a second waste gate exhaust pipe but it still over revved at
altitude. These pictures clearly illustrate how small the rotary is
compared to a typical aircraft engine with the same HP.

Well, 2 clamps are not used everywhere, some fittings only have one, and
some have two on one tube and 1 on the other.

Never-the-less, beautiful work, and well laid out. I wish the KIS had as
much room under the cowl as the cozy -- make it a lot easier to install.
