[Sentoa] Exhaust Tube Temperature - Salon Model "A"

The temp of my FG tubing just behind the "Y" and just aft of center
(lowest spot) would exceed 200 degrees F when running between 1500 & 1900
RPMs, above or below those speeds much cooler.

I finally bit the bullet and set about to try to cool it. I removed the
Cummins OEM mixer elbow (no riser) and plugged 6 of the lower holes in the
"shower head" and enlarged some top holes. I had a friend weld up a 5"
diameter ring with angled vanes (turbine) which I installed in the rubber
hose between the elbow and the FG tubing.

The front section of the tubing is now cool and the hot spot near the rear
is down 35 to 40 degrees F.

I now feel a lot cooler. More details on request.
