Ok, Rusty,  I'll do that when I take the ducts out to install.  Be early next week, then I'll take photos of them side by side.
Let's see, this is June 11, so Performance Propellers should start making my prop a MONTH FROM NOW! Arrggg!  Withdrawal pains are beginning to increase. 
 
 But, still got a few things to do to the aircraft, want to redo my motor mounts as I find I have no rubber insulation between engine and mount (it just looks that way).  Would like to switch to LS1 coils, need to get the EC2 updates in any case, so that would be the time to have it converted to LS1 coils. 
 
Anyone know of a supplier with a good price on the  LS1 coils?  The electrical connector as well, those things cost almost as much as the coils.  I think I can find some non-OME connectors at a much more reasonable price.
I purchased on coil back a while ago just to see what it weighed and to have for mounting measurements.  The price of the coil was reasonable, but the electric connector surprised me.
 
Anyhow, how is the V-3 Rusty?  Sounds like you have picked up lots with Tracy's old Prop and your new intake.

I have kept the old ducts and will put them back on when I get some instrumentation hooked up so we can do a side by side comparison.
 
 
Very nice.  It'll be interesting to see the results (in a couple months).  While you're in a picture posting mood, how about a picture of old and new ducts side by side for comparison?
 
Cheers,
Rusty (trying to resist the turbo posts)
