Sounds good to me, Bill.  With OAT over 100F, my oil would probably hit 205-210F and the coolant perhaps 215 on a hard climbout.  My cowl opening is 3" tall and approx 20" wide, perhaps a bit much, but haven't had any reason to try to reduce the size

NOW you come up with this!  I already did it the hard way.  Pressure recovery was good, and the biggest improvement came from opening up the cowl flap.  I made a new one that is about twice the size of the original.  Now I can climb out at 25 inches MAP with OAT over 100F, and the oil stays under 200, and the coolant stays about 205.  Does that sound reasonable for temps?   Bill Eslick   -------Original Message-------   > There is quite a bit more but here is the key part.
