Ed, It's in Austin May 29-31. Need to show up and look at those cool radiators you made me. I attempted tuning today and ran for over 2 hours. Mostly between 3000 and 6000 rpm. It was 62F OAT and I think I had my water up to 190F and my oil to 160 once. Bring the rpm back to 3000 and it would cool back down to 160F water and 120F oil. Ok I did have my cowl off and my prop was set to high rpm.
