Any chance to lay down the cooler and make some ducts (don't forget all the
duct considerations mentioned on the other site!)

Hi Bob,

I don't know what year it is.  I think Bruce has a pile of them and
just picked one.  I checked Tracy's oil cooler at Oshkosh, and his has
the side connections like yours. Then I forgot to ask him about input
and output.  Having the input and output on the side would have been
more convenient.

I may have to put a 180 hose fitting on it, cut a hole in the cowl and
make a bump there.  I'll have to take a closer look next trip to the
airport.  Thanks.

Bob W.
