Hi all,
My Acroduster has been flying around with just a sheet aluminium cone attached to the air manifold intake which sits at the front lower side of my IO360. As you can see from the photo, there is an air intake scoop on the lower cowl, but this is not connected to (or even line up with) the ali cone. I am fitting a proper Bracket air filter and trying to build a fibreglass intake that will connect the Bracket filter to the air manifold.
Given that the engine will move around, has anyone got any ideas how to create a flexible joint between the air intake and the manifold? Any photos of your own set up would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
