Tracy, you're probably right about the radiator as it didn't work to well in my airframe.  The picture was to show exhaust and radiator but if you look closely, the pipes are pretty shiny; i.e., that oil line was a temporary setup that never actually saw any air time.

I sent an email previously that didn't make the list ... I'll resend it.

That oil line going by the exhaust headers is SCARY.  

The rad looks like something suitable for a 200 mph plane.  Too thick for something slower.

For comparison see attached photo of original setup that flew for 67 hours … exhaust was good and oil cooling was good but my water cooling was marginal at best – limited to about 75F OAT.
