It is mounted on the firewall with a 3.5"(from memory?)scat tube supply off the rear baffle plate into a large plenum. In winter I block off 90% of the air to keep the oil dry. It was purchased through Aircraft Spruce. The cooler has a row of holes at each end between the end plate and the cooling fin material, allowing a substantial amount of air to pass through at high speed, making little contact with hot metal. The holes were filled with a low density high temp flexible hole filling material. Thin clear silicone RTV with lacquer thinner to the consistency of 20W oil, thicken with micro, load into a large syringe, fill holes on both sides. do not try to fill the holes through the full thickness of the cooler, as it will migrate into the cooling fins. --- ETLTYT@aol.com wrote: > Does anyone have experience with the Aero-Classics oil cooler from > Pacific > Oil Coolers? ===== BILL HANNAHAN WFHANNAHAN@YAHOO.COM
