Slow news days... waiting for something exciting to talk about here. So.
The hernia is still bothering me, so I reopened my question to Elio.

Hello, The exhaust run is still on my mind. It is fully enclosed, so where does the heat dissipate to ?
I think it better to run it between the body and frame, with a heat shield above and open air below, to enable the heat to escape to open air if possible.This could possibly allow a simpler smoother design, better heat dissipation, and a lower manufacture cost.
Best wishes, and I am really looking forward to seeing a finalized ELIO. "
