ST-60 on a pipe

OK....Before my time with Piped engines the ST-60 was used. Can some of you "OLDER" piped flyers fill me in as to your set up and How you did with the ST-60 on a pipe?
Props,pipes,lenghts,fuel,anything else.....

Scott (not that old) Riese

Scott:

I watched Winfred fiddle and fiddle with this concept.... what evolved was, pretty much, a ST 60 with a long muffler. Not much "pipe" action at all. Dave Cook hooked up a side to rear adapter and used regular brass tube to about the same effect at considerable less aggrevation.

Most, at the time, were using fairly close to 5 or 6 pitch props.

Locally, a guy is using the Windy "set-up" on a .60, and it makes clean up a lot easier.

See Ya

The ST 60 has 140-exhaust timing, I believe. The chart on the PA pipe length post would apply, wouldn’t it? I am pipe stupid.

Big Jim ST 60 doesn’t need a pipe, but you already knew that.

Of course, the pipe will keep the spooge off your plane.

I don't know, Scott, I thought you were pretty old.

What about putting a Mac's Muffler on it, Scott? Steve

Murray Howell won our 99 Aussie nats with an ST60 on pipe. Pipe was an Eather #6, not sure of the length, long anyway. Prop was a 12 x 5.5 timber one I carved for him with some undercamber mid blade. It had excellent speed control in the wind.
