Paul,

Here are some pics with the fuel plenum and proximity. Both pipes will be
routed into the metal duct, turn up, then rearward.  This is a mockup
engine.

A substantial heat shield will be required.

That is a cool exhaust flange Joe. Did you make it or did you buy it?

Are those p-port tubes aluminum and bonded in?
As I recall you had a lot of trouble sealing those.
I did too on the first p-port engine I built.
The new SS welded in tubes are a lot easier
to get sealed. Inner and outer seal.

Paul,

This is the mockup engine and the tubes are Al.  I wanted to see how hard it
was to build a P Port.  The flight engine has the welded SS tubes.  The
problem that I am facing is the clearance between the headers and the intake
tubes.  They will be parallel to each other seperated by a couple of inches
but will require a heat shield probably out of SS.  The real trick will be
anchoring it to the Motor mount and providing clearance for the engine to
move a little.  I think I will have to go with the Burns 180 bend with the
3" CLR for the first tube out of the portthese tubes are 4 3/4" CLR.
