Hi All,
I'm building the firefly conversion and would like to know where the Exhaust outlet pipes are looked at all my reference books but can't find them!. Don't want to drill the back panal until I know, any info and or pictures would be great. Thanks in advance :thumbup:. Brian...

Here is the original configuration. The large picture is missing the flange exhaust pipes. If you loo bottom right corner there is an example of them mounted

When the multibank engine was replaced with a Continental Radial R-975 engine back air filters were added. We choose to do the earlier model for obvious reasons... :-)

Hi Dean,
Thanks very much for the pics :thumbup: . I kept the old exhaust outlets so can use them. When do you think the kits will be dispatched?. The lower hull is all done now lengthen and fitted out inside just the underside engine and rad hatches to do. Brian...
