REFLECTOR: Tim England Chevy V6/Water Cooling Video

[Alex Balic]

Chris-

For your hot-running rotary, you had better at least plan to use ram air-
might get by with the NACA's for oil coolers though.........

I would love to see some pix of your mods if you have any.  I am trying to
determine the best cooling options now.  One camp thinks the NACA's are
enough, others insist you must have drop down belly scoops....I, heck, I
don't know.  I am not even sure where I will place the radiator/heat
exchangers yet.  .....isn't this fun <g>

All the best,

Chris

I have a copy of Tim England's tape, and can make more.

He was a big help to me, as there were some things I wanted to do that he
explained. There were also some things he did that I wanted to change.
Consider it improving on some steps he already made.

One thing I noticed is that his Velocity was pretty slow. I believe that the
pit scoops, the bottom cowl bump (air to the prop) and the belly scoop all
added up to more drag than usual.

Thanks to Tim, I came up with a design that I believe will improve on his
work. Time will tell.
