The cross- section of the gas passage throughi the manifold bas been made rectang- ular with a wide, fiat.bottoni surface, and the ports 1into- the cylinder block iikewise made rectangular. Changes of direction of the gas flow in the manifoldl are. made at acute, angl es instead of. around. gentjy, curved bends,. so that the gas stream is sharply, reversed just before enter- ing theports. The exlaust -manif old discharges al, exhaust gases at a centrai ýoutiet instead of at thefor- ward end, thus. receiving the- bot gases from aIl cylinders. During coid weather the owner, can easily divert ail this hot, gas through a heater compartment, surrounding the carbti- retor riser by means of a coirtrol Io- cated on the dash.
