In my proposed installation the Rads [both oil and coolant] will be located outside the cowl area so that shouldn't be a concern.. At least thats the plan ;-)

Don't forget room for your radiator(s) and oil cooler. Removing the radiators from the cowl cheeks sure makes for a nice snout, but they've got to go somewhere...

I'm curious as to the installed width of the 13b or 20b's that some of you
have on your birds. Assuming a turbo installation and a spintech exhaust
down below and fuel injection. How narrow could a guy make his overall cowl
width at the firewall?  What would be a 'safe' number?  This could/would
mean a narrower engine mount because it would seem that, that might be the
widest pnt on most mounts out there right now..  or an I way off in thinking
that?

Curious..
