I don't think there has been any change to the exhaust system since the
beginning.

Gary,
The MT propeller that you installed on the Tiger uses a brush-block to
communicate pitch changes to the electric motor, correct? Where then
does the brush-block mount? To the cowl? To the engine case?
Thanks.

I mis-spoke abit,
Actually the brush block mounts on the top of the crankcase and the contact
rings are mounted on the aft of the starter ring gear.
I have a couple of installation pics if your reallly curious let me know and
I'll email them to you.

Here is another hotrod Yankee:
http://members.cox.net/n481hy/
Best initial climb speed is about 110 knots and gives about 1300 fpm, solo
with full mains only, and about 1000 fpm at max gross
150 KTAS Cruise (11500', 2700 RPM, <9 GPH), >160 KTAS Top Speed
Bill does yours go this fast?
