Hi again, Ed. Thank you very much for going into the details of my
cooling system. My SQ2000 is a fairly fast aircraft. Normal climb speeds are
between 120 and 140 mph. George Graham has a 13b powered side-by-side E
Racer, which has a similar profile to mine, and he said that he takes off
and climbs at 1/2 throttle. That statement, plus your input, makes me more
comfortable that this radiator will work for me. I am more concerned about
having a radiator that will cool my engine in cruise configuration, as
that's where I will be spending 95% of my time flying. If necessary, I can
always climb in "steps", allowing the engine to cool before resuming climb.
The 16x10 radiator will make for a very neat, compact, and easy to duct
installation. Thanks again for all of the time you have spent figuring out
the cooling capabilities for me. Hope I can return the favor somehow in the
future. Paul Conner, Mobile, AL
