Re: A Sea Fury Fan's Lament
Look on-line for info on the development of the Griffon. Numbers are varied, but all are close to this. The PM cowling uses an intake that goes from behind the props back to reach the downdraft carb- it doesn't use blisters to clear the valve covers because it doesn't need to. MAII used a much shorter intake with a NACA Duct. By all reports, the NACA scoop on MA II wasn't working out like they expected it to anyway, so it wasn't really an advantage. PM is using profiled props, compared to the ones on MAII...there is much different between the configurations to take into account. The Truth Is On The Course.
