Welcome Thom,

You're actually one of the lucky ones, who didn't = have to go to counseling to try to forget the horrific image of BUC.  T= he first iteration of my RV-3 cowl got way out of control.  I bought a = radiator that was way too big, added a turbo I had no room for, and used an = off-the-shelf intake that was far taller than the top of the cowl.  I w= asted a full 2 week vacation modifying a stock cowl to fit around all this m= ess, and the results were disturbing to say the least.  I started refer= ring to the resulting offense as the Big Ugly Cowl, or BUC, and it got adopt= ed as a name.  I considered that rev-1, with rev-2 being the current se= tup (stock, bump free cowl).  The recent rev-3 messages refer to the ne= xt iteration, where I install a -C drive and larger prop.  

BTW, BUC is long gone, and I even made the local E= AA webmaster remove the pictures.  BUC is best forgotten, which is of c= ourse why John is teasing me about the tee shirts :-)

Cheers,
Rust= y (John better hold those tee shirts until he see the tracking number for hi= s turbo)
