Rusty,
That looks really good.  I've been busy with building the house, and haven't
been very active on the group, but I have been reading
the posts, and following our progress.

I'm sure that you'll be excited to fire up your engine
for the first time, in the near future.

I'm staying with friends in SC, so that I can do some
flying today and tomorrow before returning to NC.  Steve Brooks (dial up Internet stinks)

Greetings,
 
While Paul was playing with foam today (practicing
to come do my oil cooler
scoop I hope <g>), I was filling the garage with
aluminum chips.  Attached
are some pics of the adapter that I made to bolt to
the rear housing.  I'm
pretty damn proud of it, so if you have any negative
complaints, keep them
to yourself :-)
 
To explain the fittings, my oil cooler has one
inlet, and two outlets.  I
decided to sent the normal AN-12 outlet to the AN-12
fitting that you see on
this adapter.  This connects the outlet tank of the
oil cooler to the
regulator.  The other outlet of the cooler will be
an AN-8 hose that goes to
the inlet of the filter (see oil filter adapter part
two tomorrow).  The
outlet of the filter goes to the AN-8 fitting that
you see on this adapter.
There is also an oil temp sender mounted in the
adapter.   Have I mentioned that I love having the tools to do
this stuff :-)   Cheers,
Rusty (irritating the Sonerai guys with my
blasphemous rotary plans)
