the reason I say that is someone had posted pictures and posed the question about how his intake got all carboned up in that chamber. When all you had was two tubes going in and none going out, This is the conclusion the group (being the stovebolt group) came up with. It may or may not be the case, I don't know for a fact. I guess you could exchange those pieces of tubing for pieces of copper rod. If it is only conduction/convection, this should work just as well. The important thing is if it actually works, regardless of the reasoning.
