Hi, Kathy....glad to see you on this list....I wish to ask a question you may know, or possibly Dave can answer.  I purchased Dave's ignition/fuel system which included the MicroTech ECU, TWM throttlebody with injectors, short intake manifold, sensors, coils, etc, etc.  My question is....With the short manifold putting the TWM throttlebody over the top of the exhaust, has Dave had any problems with fuel dripping out of the throttlebody after engine shutdown?  Also, did he put any kind of heat barrier between the exhaust manifold and the throttlebody?  I am in the process of installing mine, and any helpful hints would be sincerely appreciated.  Lastly, since I have basically the same setup as Dave's, what size prop is he using, and what RPM's should I look for on static runup?  Sorry for the barrage of questions....any and all answered will be much appreciated.  sincerely, Paul Conner, 13b turbo (without the turbo) on an SQ2000 canard in Mobile, AL

 > One of David's first proiducts the thermal pellet, was copied by 2 companies, one in CA and the other
on the east coast. The east coast company even admitted a direct copy.

 > Next another company copies our apex seals claiming some false information.
 > If you spent time and hard earned money making a better product and found this happening to you,
I'm sure you would be upset and Paranoid.
 > David and the AtkinsRotary.com crew take alot of pride in the products that are developed and I
guess copying those products are a compliment to us, as immation is the sincerest form of flattery.
 > Have a happy holiday.

 > >  Hi guys,
 > >  I would like to clarify a few things. David has only replaced ross drives that has failed. He had one
for several years that had failed twice, so he is not fond of them. He now has a power sport drive that he is
very comfortable with. The only belt type drives he has are for air boats. One is currently in R&D with a
gentleman in Arkansas that is a belt drive for a 1 rotor engine.
