Rusty - I am going to have to extend my cowl something like
4". I was thinking about adding a flange to the firewall rather than
the cowling, since I trust my AL work way more than my fiberglass.
Perhaps you could do something similar.
Hi Kevin, I
already have about a 1.5" flange on the firewall, and it is in the way at times,
so I'm pretty sure I won't extend it any further, though I understand the desire
to make this an aluminum job, rather than a fiberglass job :-)
Kevin Lane (thinking outside the, uhmmm, cowling, although your
cowlings sometimes look more like, well, never mind!))
No telling what the new cowl mods will
look like. The rear of the new oil cooler is way down there, so Bernie
will get that increase in exit area he's be whining about. This gives me
the ability to blame the looks on him :-)
Cheers,
Rusty (shouldn't be that
bad)
