Randy,

I took=20 old inner tubes and made sleaves out of them. Giant hose clamp on = each end=20 made for the attachment. Mine are unique in that they attach to = rings that=20 insert into the leading edge of the cowl halves. The plenum = leading edge=20 is also cylindrical.

So if=20 I'm hearing you correctly, you could do as the Greenamier Legacy is = built. =20 That is, have the lower cowl intake include the entire cylinder. = This=20 would allow proper attach to both cowl and plenum. Then the top = cowl,=20 using only a flange at the leading edge, could bolt on = top.

I=20 found the plumbers tubes to be too stiff for my=20 installation.

A=20 better installation would use the legs out of an old wet=20 suit.

Best,

Larry=20 Henney
