Al, thanks for the encouragement and the technical tip. I don't think an eductor would work with my setup as the exhaust is not contained within the cowling: muffler/tailpipe ends
about 4 feet behind firewall.

p.s. 1st recurrent taildragger lesson went well.

Congrats on the success Jeff. I’d sure give some thought to adding exhaust eductor. One of the few things you can add that improves efficiency. Real easy to test the concept without making any sort of commitment. Just add a large diam, say 4”, tube that
surrounds exhaust outlet. It has to stick out further than exhaust pipe. That allows expanding exhaust gas to accelerate air between the two tubes. A real winner. You can use a little air speed device to prove how much it accelerates air.
