John, I plan to be there mon-tue-wed. I plan to park in front of homebuilders headquarters as an "auto conversion". They have offered this parking to former champions, homebuilts with over 1000 hrs, and auto-conversions (and maybe more). I called and they are sending me a card for the window to alert the parking crew.

Summer found me detoured from the airplane project. Now I have the exhaust system fabricated, it is time to try some exhaust experiments. Does any one have an idea on the auto exhaust temperatures after the catalytic converter. My V-6 cylinder pickup is going to need exhaust work and somewhere it is stuck in my mind that I read that the exhaust can go as high as 1900 degrees, so don't leave running in dry grass. This happened at Sun n Fun. I'm thinking of trying the 60 degree angle plate drilled full of holes, may 1/8" or 5/32" and welded in a section of pipe and see what happens. If it turns into an exploding cigar I'll be on the ground. Those cones are 3" in dia. and $60.00 would be less expensive than a muffler and with the housing would be lighter. JohnD Is anyone going to Oshkosh? I hope to be there the first and second day.
