Default RE: Who uses a tuned pipe on a converted engine?
I have made MCPs before as detailed here [link]http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/OS_46_AX__20%25_Morgan_OS%238_plug/m_2108597/tm.htm[/link]. This particular one gained me 1500 rpms.

I was hoping that I would not have to re-invent the wheel so to speak. If someone had used a pipe on one of these engines in the past, then they could save me some time experimenting with various sizes and dimensions.

Replace the spark plug with a glo plug. Remove the magneto and flywheel. Run the engine on methanol and use a MCP.

Sounds like the way to go to me.
