Hi Jerry,

I'll be doing some tests on my engine shortly.  It was Todd and Rusty's
experiences with EWP's that convinced me to give them a try.  

I sent Paul L. the EWP after he had asked someone to send him one for
testing. I expected him to badmouth it, but to also generate some actual
flow vs current vs pressure data, but I haven't seen the data part. :) I
now have enough stuff to get flow vs current data on the engine with
the evaporator cores that I will be using, and get some cooling results
as soon as I get the engine running.

If we had lowered the thrust line a couple of inches when you built my
motor mount, I could have probably squeezed the water pump in, and left
the alternator on top.
