I did find it at a local fabric
store. if you have troubles, I believe there is still a hunk of it in my
hangar I could send you. I rubber cemented mine to the baffle half and
roll the fabric back when I remove the lower cowl.

Kevin, This sounds like just the solution I've been looking
for. So, where do you find wetsuit material (without buying a new
wetsuit and taking the sizzors to it)? I doubt they carry it at the
local fabric stores. {;-)

- Greetings,
-
- I did the first test fit of my cooling ducts, and there's hope for
them. I still haven't decided exactly what I'm going to do to seal
the front of the duct to the cowl inlet. There's only about 1/8" gap
at most, and I'm thinking that it will probably work fine without any
additional seal, however, I'll probably try to put some sort of foam strip
to get some sort of a seal.
-
- I looked through all the pics I have, and can't find a picture that
shows the front of anyone's duct. How are you guys sealing these to
the cowls? Pictures???
