Paul;
To comment on just one of your questions;
I think it is advisable to have a heat barrier between the fuel rails and
intake manifold, and the hot exhaust manifold. I made one out of .020
SS. Photo attached. It has brackets to the lower intake manifold
bolts, and some light weight SS brackets to the TB.

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
