I would like to see someone who really knows how to design and manufacture composite parts take on the project. Tracy certainly knows how to design the part and there must be someone who can fabricate a smooth good looking carbon fiber intake system. A bolt on unit for the Renisis that I suspect Tracy is installing on his RV-4 rocket.
Now I am answering my own posts..

A complete intake system for the Renisis would be a blessing to those of us dreaming of 220 hp. smooth engines.

Has anyone looked into creating carbon fiber intake manifolds for their
rotary engine? It would save weight and I would think it would not be
much more difficult than making a completely costume AL manifold.
How is the carbon-fiber assembly coupled to the engine? Is a flange incorporated that bolts directly onto the engine block, and if so, are there heat-related issues involved?
