My radiator is not discharging into the cowling, so there is not a
connection. I did another test run with the inlet around the prop flange taped
almost shut, and the engine sputtering did not come back. This would indicate to
me there is a connection. Either with pressure or some sort of turbulence.

If its cooling well I wouldn't be so quick to call it a big mistake.

Analyzed the dimensions of my cowling, and fount the exit openings being
about 70% of the inlet openings. Big mistake there. This will be fixed before
looking at other options.
