Pietenpol-List: Carb Heat Muffs

Post by matronics »

Original Posted By: "Oscar Zuniga"
I am considering making new headers (exhaust) for my A-75, and I am tryingto determine what is the most economical yet effective way to attach a carbheat muff to a single exhaust pipe. Currently, my headers are shortenedAeronca 7AC headers. Does anyone have suggestions or pictures of your carbheat muff?Thanks,Steve RuseNorman, OK________________________________________________________________________________

Steve; if you want to fab your own there are some construction details of a simple carb heat box on a single pipe on Mark Langford's site, athttp://home.hiwaay.net/~langford/corvair/airbox/I think Mark also tried an off-the-shelf (Wicks/Spruce) muff on his setup so that's another option.Oscar ZunigaSan Antonio, TXmailto: taildrags(at)hotmail.comwebsite at http://www.flysquirrel.net_________________________________________________________________Messenger Caf open for fun 24/7.

Jack, Did you ever change over to your new wood prop? My 74 X 38 seems to work really well (of course after my old prop a warped 2 X 4 would seem to do really well).Gene->>>> -- > 4:02 PM> ________________________________________________________________________________
