Phil,
The jury is still out as to whether my oil cooler is adequate.  Needless to say, one short flight is not enough to determine this.  From my extensive ground and taxi runs, my hunch is that it will work fine.  I'll report back when I have a few more flights on it.  I'm using a Fluidyne cooler, roughly 11.5 x 11 x 2.75.  The Fluidyne is a very robust, double-pass cooler.  It has internal turbulators like the RX-7 coolers have.  See attached picture.

I was on vacation while last week's flurry of emails flew regarding 20B
planes not yet flying.  I have a 20B awaiting re-assembly and mounting
on my RV-10.  Airframe is 97% done, but panel not started.

   Would appreciate photos or details of cooling systems (esp. which
Oil cooler you used successfully) from other 20B installations.
