Scoop
If I'm seeing pics correct, you have hard lines
going from one component to another(oil lines). This is high risk. Makes the
installation sensitive to fatigue failures, differential expansion, resonance.
Take a look at your car, you'll find almost all hard lines terminated with
flexible hose (like your rad lines).
Even if you have flexible hose, you need to plan
on tying the lines every few inches to control vibration. The hardlines will
become "S" shaped during flight.
If I'm seeing wrong, or you have already planned
this stuff...........never mind.

Hi
Greg,
I am anxious to see what you
get on the dyno with your engine! It should be a screamer!
What is the opening size of the belly scoop and where did you get the
scoop? I am thinking of something similar with my FG. How do
you direct the air inside the scoop to go over both the oil and water
exchangers? How do you control the cowl flap? You said
manually??? How?
