Gary,

I remember you were required to do carb heat tests during the Jaguar cowl STC process. I'm curious if you got a feel for how much of the RPM drop is due to heat vs restriction of airflow?



I think you had trouble getting even the factory muffler to pass the carb heat requirements on a hot day. Even harder for the Powerflow...



My second question is whether closing out the Powerflow heat box would help increase heat? Or restrict airflow too much?



Powerflow is open ended right next to the carb heat inlet allowing air outside the heat muff lower  to mix in.
