I'm try to collect info about the best option for selecting an oil
cooler for my 20B. Have been hearing a lot of bad things about some
after market brands used on the rotary. What about two 13B oil
coolers?
Two 13B coolers would work (with a
margin of safety) if you have the space to put them.
I got a custom oil cooler from Griffin for my 20B
that I am very impressed with. It is made to my dimensions and
specs. It is a very well built unit. I've done the air-side flow
test to verify their numbers and it looks good. I'm not flying yet so
have no operating data.
Photo attached. Core dimensions 21.5 long; 5.3
high; 3.3 thick. Designed for 2380 Btu/min. Should be good for 200
hp continuous on a 95F day.
It is made to mount in the wing root in my
Velocity.
