Watching closely! looks like a great idea bro!

I agree !!! But you already are injesting water 100 % of the time !!! Check this out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zfx6l...layer_embedded


I often ponder if Mercury hires Chimps to engineer their engines ??? How in the hell could they overlook this ??

Just finished up 2nd prototype , this one has improved air flow as slot is much longer and painting it will be an option The Naca Opti duxt on left is my first prototype with air slot on rear . As you can see in the other Photos the slot wraps around the side which should be all the air it needs . Each engine will have two dropped in the upper R & L front angled section on cowl

Looks great on the painted one. How much and when can I get 4.

Not sure on pricing , will keep posted when they are released . The painted ones are much more work as they have to be prepped , adhesion promoter and then straight up black Urethane . NOT A MICKEY MOUSE SPRAY JOB !!!

ss screens to stop the direct spray ?? those are nice ,I am interested. Maybe only mount 1 vent on the inside side of each cowling?

They are not flat , highy complex curve and will only fit as shown . Keep in mind as of right now your engine is inhaling water 100 % of the time so that one time you get a splash is really no big deal. I shoild have a pic of them in place later today. Each set will come with template and you simply tape cowl to protect from scratching and use a roto zip

Larry, any chance I could get four sets of your scoops?

Been hard at work on thses scoops and here is what they look like installed . They come painted gloss black Urethane , have 3M emblem double-sided tape , instructions and Template . They will be on Ebay very soon
