Hi Mike;
Tracy once used a copper line running coolant through his oilpan, but this
was on an early version of his 13B adventures. Recently someone had asked me
about that, after reading through my old copy of his book, and I'd been
meaning to ask Tracy when/if/why he removed it?
So how about it Tracy? And are you planning (between filling Rusty's
orders) on writing an updated book based on knowledge gained over the last
few years, with the Renesis & 20B. I often get asked about this.

Subject: [FlyRotary] water cooled matrix in the oil pan


Dear All,

I was reading through some of the old postings and came across Leon's post
in which he suggested putting a water cooled matrix in a modified oil pan
(sump).  This seems to have a lot going for it.  The posting is #1188.  Of
course there are minor issues like not stuffing the dipstick through the
cooler matrix and making sure the oil pick up goes to the right place, but
nothing insurmountable.

There were no follow up postings and yet it seemed quite a decent idea.
What am I missing (apart from pictures of wombats and/or nude moose).
