I also shot the exhaust header. Header is holding as tight and as clean as when I installed it 3 or 4 weeks ago. Not a drop of oil goo anywhere to be found after a solid 4 1/2 - 5 hours of running. I think the exhaust situation is well under control
No, the engine was not re-cleaned before taking the snaps. That's what it looked like upon extraction from the fuse. Just love clean se-ups.
Bravo, Matt, you're really getting it tweaked and tricked!! A solid, clean set-up worthy of a fine airframe.
Will you get to fire it up today to see how the velo stack works before flying at Poconos?
My header is still holding tight as well, and still only few drops of residue after a long flying session. However, if the velo stack works I will probably get one to install, and while the engine is pulled I might take the opportunity to reinstall the header with some gasket material.
