Greg,
Very nice work. One question... is the intercooler shock-mounted? If not, you may want to incorporate something to dampen out any vibrations. I supported my radiator from the front of the psru with rod-ends. It provides support while allowing movement at the same time.

Everything except the flange, which came from MazaTrix, that you see here came off the shelf from Burns stainless. I even have an extra 3-1 collector if you want it. It's all 320 stainless, and could work for N/A also. Altogether, I have about $400.00 into it, plus welding, and a wastegate. Also, as I said before, Burns has racing mufflers that should be looked at by someone. I don't think I will need one, hopefully.

Al and Greg,
Thanks for your replys on this subject. I realize the manifold would be too heavy but I was hoping I could widdle it down some how. Greg, I would be interested in your suggestion for doing that. I'm putting this 20B in a BD-4.

Al, you don't want the stock exhaust. Get one built. If you want to know one way it's done, let me know.

Does anyone on this list have a 20B exhaust manifold that came with their engine that I could buy?
No; but I do know the thing is massively heavy. I looked at one when I got my engine, and decided quickly it was not very interesting for an aircraft. Maybe if radically modified . . . Just my opinion.
