 December 19th test will have the pressure port on the steel nozzle
convergent side. On our 12" sugar motors we had over 4 inches of slag
build up on the bulkheads and put the port there for that reason. The
first two tests of this 8" motor were nozzle down and that's why we
had the pressure port on the bulkhead.

Makes sense.  You're certainly playing with bigger motors than I am!  I
had plans for some 6" tests before covid, and then more significantly,
fire bans here in Colorado messed us up.  Maybe next year!
