ok, for everyone who is wondering why they put that high glow head on the tex, here's the answer:
In Texaco events, engines usually are run very lean (heat), thus keeping the prop rpm low (bad cooling, even more Heat)
so the engine tends to overheat. Solution? larger cooling area, ergo more fins! that high head is
useful after all...

it would be ideal, because it could use the heat produced from slow running for its advantage! i'd even suggest
one of these 1 fin glow heads...
hold on, the pics are almost up...
