Sport RD, -2.25" (this is a guess); Real World Solutions  0 offset
- Material

  Hi John & list
 Sorry I didn't give all the details on the cowl. I will be using a
Powersport gear box and design--not their cowl. If you might be interested
contact me off list.  I wanted to be brief not intended to be a subject of
discussion.

Yes it does -- thanks Ed.  The flow balance problems you mention remind me
of the Cessna 150/152 fuel flow setup where both tanks supposedly drain by
gravity 'equally' -- I've seen one tank go down to almost the last quarter
before the other showed signs of flowing.
