   Thanks for your comments. That is a good was of getting a  little more 
heat out of the oil. Does anyone have a electric powered heater that  works maybe?

Hi Ken,
 
One option that someone had implemented was to open up the plenum which  the 
oil cooler lines run through and pick up that heat and allow it to blow  into 
the rear cabin. This would require that the vernertherm close off and  force 
oil through he cooler and the lines during the winter.  If the  cooling air to 
the engine isn't reduced during the winter flying, then the oil  won't get hot 
enough to do much cabin heating.  This could be done by  restricting the NACA 
scoops by reducing the inlet area.
 
I am planning to install outlet scoops just in front of the firewall to  gain 
some oil cooling from the oil lines for the summer months.  If you  calculate 
the surface area of the two 10' lines going through the plenum, it  is almost 
as much as the surface area of the oil cooler.

To All
   Does anyone have some sort of rear cabin heat working with  a air cooled 
engine?
