The hot side oil cooler temps are only 220 max.
The highest coolant temp was 210 when I climbed WOT from sea level to 3K. The
test this morning was with the cowl flap clamped open.
Congrats on the success
so far, though the oil temps are a bit toasty considering the OAT and limited
climb. That's a great looking cowl flap! How do you plan to actuate
that bad boy?
What is your inlet
(water and oil) and outlet area now? I was looking at an RV-7 cowl today,
and just can't get over how little exit area there is for a 200 HP engine.
Really irritates me, considering I have about 4 times that
:-)
Cheers,
Rusty (flying again very
soon)
