I'm undecided about getting air for my 360-powered LNC2 from a NACA duct on the starboard side of the lower cowl or taking it off the aft baffling by the #3 cylinder.  I'd prefer to take it off the baffling if I could be certain of adequate cylinder cooling.

I'd like to get comments, particularly from 360 drivers who take air off the baffling and have or don't have cooling problems.  (I'm assuming that those of you with NACA scoops don't have cooling problems on the #3 cylinder specifically.) I'd also be interested in comments from 320 drivers who take air off the baffling and have cooling problems.  (I'm assuming that the extra 12.5% power of a 360 results in 12.5% more heat, thus an adequately cooled 320 configuration is no guarantee that it will work in a 360.)

Thanks.
