Looking thru the results of the cozy mail-list search tool on 'Ellison', apparently a small number of CozyMKIV flyers are using the Ellison on their 360's, (Nat, Steve Wright, David Dormier, Marc Zeitlin, and at least one or two more). My understanding is that even the motor on Paul's bench wouldn't produce more (or much more) power than the 360. How can the 360's produce their power if that bore-size is an issue? I've already been seduced, Paul may have 'tried' too many things already.
