Steve.
Alternate techniques depend on how much room you have in your ducts. There ar many high temp silicone foam strips that will easily handle the temperature. So how much space do you have?

Subject: [FlyRotary] Sealing the Radiators

I'm nearly finished with my Mistral installation and aircraft build. One of the tasks I have left to do is seal all the possible air passages between the radiators and the plenum. What have you-all used to make this seal? I know that some have used one form or another of RTV. Are there any adhesive tapes that would do the job? I think it would be easier to use tape of some sort rather than having to cut and remove RTV every annual to get the lower cowl removed (my plenum is integrated into the lower cowl.) But, I don't know. 
 
Any ideas are appreciated! 
 
Best Regards, 
 
Steve Thomas
