Today was the first run of the single rotor
with one final configuration compound side housing. No problems observed,
except for a clogged carb jet from laying around for 6 month. No more cast iron
between side housing and rotor housing (picture).
This is the side housing I showed at last Octobers
Shady Bend meeting. MAP was at only 20", which is all I can do with the present
setup. Since there is no dyno in my real world, I will have to think about
reworking the test stand for running the engine with a real prop.
