    Subject: [FlyRotary] HS Port Barrel Valve Modifications


    I did an archive search and couldn't find an answer to my =
question...in Bruce T's O.H. video it looks like he places putty =
direactly into the housing vs. into the barrel valve as Tracy mentions =
in his book.  Is there a reason why we can't eliminate the barrel all =
together and modify (putty) the end housings directly (as the video =
seems to show)?  Thanks for the info.

    Doug, when I elminated the barrel valve, I simply removed it and =
used a combination of an epoxy "stick" (which when mixed,  gives you =
epoxy about the consistency of dough) to fill in most of the end of the =
cavity and shaped it so as to have good airflow into the port.  I think =
mixed some JB WELD and covered the dough epoxy and used Lacqure thinner =
to smooth the surface.  It worked just fine for over 160 hours until I =
replaced the six port engine with a four port.

    Good advice.  The only reason I modified the barrel valves was =
because I didn't plan to open the engine.  This plan didn't work out =
because I ended up having to overhaul the engine anyway.  Better to =
streamline the sidehousing port and dump the barrel valve as Ed did. =20
