I and Lancair have tried to find the install manual but the only ones avail= able are for the pressurized ES' and IVs which use a turbo setup. The o= ne we have is taking the heat from the exhaust muffler into tube facing the= engine compartment and venting through the downward tube of the T shape va= lve.=C2=A0 The problem that I see is if the valve is cracked open because i= t did not fully close is that heat is still coming into the cabin.

If I reroute the heat from the bottom the valve would have to be opened qui= te a bit to allow heat in.

Also, has anyone thought about bringing in outside air through the engine c= ompartment to behind the instrument panel to help cool the avionics?
