I know of one successful installation
using the stock exhaust manifold – that is Perry Mick in Oregon. He’s been
running if from day one and seems to like it a lot. He’s tried to
convince me to go with the stock manifold…maybe I should have listened J

Exhaust
I am glad everything turned out OK and that you are
safe. I have a question on exhaust systems as I am trying to see what
will work in the narrow confines of the Limo EZ. Has anyone used the
stock cast iron exhaust manifold successfully? The motor mount
tubes make it tight if the bends need to be generous. I have
this idea to bring the exaust up to the top of the engine into an augmenter
that runs the entire length of the cowl. The augmenter will be bolted to
the engine mount and will serve as part of the upper cowl. Heat rises so
why soak the engine during post shutdown and ground ops? The intake tubes
will run into the wing root where the injectors and airbos will reside.
Thanks for any help.
