Bill,  do you think the misunderstanding of the design was more
widespread.  I think PL did not grasp it either.  My recollection back
then did not include the center pipe but I could easily be wrong.  I
wrote Ed  for clarification.   More importantly, I like the design and
if my system proves inadequate, I will build  a version of yours.=20
Seems like the outlet opening around the tube where it enters the
tailpipe might be restrictive.     Jerry

<excerpt>Bill, I did get the jpeg and I really like the concept. I
never saw the original VAM. Ed told me about how it was chopped up to

about putting a valve on the inlet to prevent exhaust gas from going

Jerry,

=A0It is interesting how you find out about things after the fact. (ED
if your monitoring please let me know if our info is correct) The
entire idea of the VAM concept was to create a venturi to draw the
cool air in! The reason for the donut fron section was it doubled as
an end cap and an inlet bellmouth for the tube. Without the inside
tube I am supprised the thing would draw air at all! I'll send you a
close up drawing I sent PL's list off line. When you get your engine
running it could be worth a re-try. I am supprised Ed missed the
center tube, (if he did), he is a sharp guy and doesn't miss much. The
other possibility is that he made it removable and they took it out
prior to the test.
