It looks like it might work for my application.  I was wondering how much HP I would be giving up, plus the additional weight.  On the positive side it may give up the heat slower and keep the under cowl tems lower plus it has to absorb some noise.  P port won't work in this scenario either.

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

Joe,

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.
