Greg, my mechanic is working on a 337 for putting the gascolator on the firewall, way below the muffler so it wouldn't be affected by the heat of the muffler. The Fed who looked at his idea was puzzled at the fact that the gascolator was not on the firewall in the first place, just as it is on all of the other planes from that era. Does anyone on the list (maybe Ed Burkhead) have any idea why the gascolator is hanging out in the air by the carburetor?
