I'll divert some intake air through= it in an attempt to push as much heat from under the cowl as quickly as po= ssible.

The final exit is 1.5".=A0 Restrictive, yes, but I'm counting = on it for significant noise reduction.

The cardboard/pink foam cons= truct just above the muffler is the nascent form for the intake air filter = box.

The 3/8" aluminum tube running along the bottom front of the engin= e is the emergency alternate fuel supply.=A0 It ends in a piece of fuel lin= e that connects to the bottom of the BMW throttle body.
