KR> Intake

The mystery of why this intake did not work, has been solved. The theory behind it was that if fuel were allowed to condense on the walls of the tube and run into the cylinders at random, in little puddles, that would make the engine sputter badly from suddenly going rich. This is true. The

KR> Intake Manifold on Black Bird

The same is true at certain throttle settings on my O-200. However, one has to ask why it runs better. As Mark states below, carb heat improves the fuel distribution. However, it doesn't do that by heating the air. It improves distribution by disturbing the air flow, adding turbulance to the

KR> Intake Manifold - Oil cooler relocation.

You have probably seen mine at www.engalt.com/kr2.htm under the engine section. It worked good for me. Not so sure how well it would work with the Ellison carb. I had the updraft Zenith which necessitated an extended lower center section of the cowl so it was easy to run the air intake line

KR> Intake Manifold - Oil cooler relocation.

It really does not matter were the cooler is installed as long as you have high pressure on one side and low pressure on the other. That is the only way air will flow threw. The Revmaster VW I owned at > one time used a larger --- "Larry H." wrote: Air is > forced through it

KR> Intake Manifold - Oil cooler relocation.

I have a GPASC intake manifold. I have looked at the Revmaster, and it looks like one copied the other. I also have looked at the one on the AeroVee site. It looks more like what I would like to have, but they will not sell it separately. They say they have so much demand for the engine kits

KR> Intake Manifold - Oil cooler relocation.

My old Mooney has the oil cooler mounted in the face of the engine cowling in about the same place as where Mark's inlet is. The opening is rectangular to match the shape of the oil cooler though. Air is forced through it and just ends up inside the engine cowling (not ducted) on the back side

Dan Before I mounted my cooler under and behind the engine, I was going to mount it flat against the firewall ( or about 1 inch or so off it)and use the fire wall as the outlet, allowing the air to run down the firewall and exit out the bottom.( with a light guard) OR I was going to mount if on
