From: Clark Baker X-Original-To: Lancair Mailing List X-Original-Cc: Randy Snarr Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary=bcaec51b1a7370003004d23f543d --bcaec51b1a7370003004d23f543d Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Hi Randy, I added the ECI cold air sump to my old 360 (A1A with Airflow Performance Fuel injection) some years ago. I would do it again if I was building the engine from SCRATCH. But, unless you really want to spend quite a bit of time (don't forget the cowl mods, new exhaust, linkages, etc) and a fair amount of money, you will likely be disappointed in the performance per $/hour invested. Also be aware of the normal expected/unexpected domino effects. For example, that heating of the induction air in the stock sump has a measurable affect on oil cooling (ie, you will run warmer oil temps with the cold air sump).

Is anyone aware of an off the shelf cold air= induction sump for an IO 320?
If not, can someone offer some info for converting the one I have?
I would like to also find out what performance increases come from making t= he change from warm to cold air..
Any help is greatly appreciated!
