To: lancair.list@olsusa.com X-Mailing-List: lancair.list@olsusa.com Reply-To: lancair.list@olsusa.com Mime-Version: 1.0 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<--->>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> << Lancair Builders' Mail List >> <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<--->>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >> I asked Orin what oil cooler to use in my non-turbocharged 360. He said he used the Stewart Warner 10599 / Positech 4215 in his turbo-normalized 360. (Actually, he underlined the part number in the Aircraft Spruce catalog without specifying which manufacturer.) The Positech 'catalog' I got at Oshkosh made it look like a larger cooler than I expected -- looks like about a 15 vane cooler but that might just be the illustration -- so I wondered what y'all were using. (Orin -- don't interpret this as my not trusting your advice. If that were the case, why would I continually be hounding you with questions???) Concerning diffusers (air inlets to the cooler) I saw the 4-seat Diamond Katana had a nice fiberglass one. The Katana guy gave me the phone number for the factory and said they used two different sizes. When I get further definition on what size cooler I need, I'll call them and see if they have a premade part that will work for us. Also the price. If it's cheap enough I'll just buy it from them. - Rob Wolf >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LML website: http://www.olsusa.com/Users/Mkaye/maillist.html LML Builders' Bookstore: http://www.buildersbooks.com/lancair Please send your photos and drawings to marvkaye@olsusa.com. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
