Hi Cameron, my plane is identical to the one Dick Hanson had at the TOC, except mine has a Dalotel canopy and cowl.

www.escomposites.com is eds website, he still needs to update it with new gas pipes which are larger than pattern pipes available now. Ed has the numbers, all I remember is the cf pipe is 4db quieter, 200 rpm more, and 25% weight of ks system I was using.

I use rubber well nuts to soft mount the engine, they reduce the shake a little bit but gets rid of that terrible guitar noise I was getting just above idle. the rubber well nuts cost $1.75 for a set and weigh less than a steel nut with lock washer.
