    Here's a couple of pic's of the mockup that I sent to Matt, showing the interference on the splash apron - was on the wrong computer to post attachments earlier...
    These are 1.5" closet rod stubs, so a 1.625 tube would be a bit worse. The solution is to come out of the header flange with a 2.5" radius up (and back on the front port) to sweep over the apron, then follow the line of the head back with the megaphone, angled to parallel the cowl and end before the door. I'll have to trim back the 30" megaphone about four inches or so, giving me a nominal 3.5" exit instead of 4", which is fine for the CC baffle inserts in stock form. Works on paper...

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
