Suuuuuuuuurre you were, Krause.....

Good God....this guy RARELY posts ANYTHING but off-topic crap, and then has
the gall to claim HE had some influence in the design of thru-the-hub
exhausts? AND that there is a patent that is paying out "six digits" FIFTY
years later????

Oh God.....I am laughing so hard I about horked up my Wheaties.....lol!

There
is a port above water on the stem that spits out water and exhaust. Do I
surmise correctly that "through the hub exhaust" doesn't mean that *all*
the exhaust goes through the hub? What is the purpose of the above-water
exhaust port?

I was the lead design engineer for thru-the-hub exhaust systems in the
early '50s. A patent that still returns 6 digit checks every month.
