REFLECTOR: OIL COOLER

[Greg Poole]

Ahhh.but you tell us only half of the story Larry!  What did the burst
pressure come out at and how does it relate to what you actually need?

 

I'm very interested in what people have found to work - not JUST work, but
work over most conditions (so some excess capacity) with utility, efficiency
and safety in mind. I like what I have seen of Al's wing installed cooling,
would like to know more about efficient ways of varying openings to minimise
drag vs fixed installations. Would also like to know (read "see") more about
Dave Bertram's underbelly inlet scoop (pictures please Dave!).

 

Seems to me that there is a heap of experience out there that isn't being
fully documented, leaving each individual to start from scratch and enjoy
(?) the mistakes of too much trial and error. Figure the starting point can
be progressively much further up the path for the benefit of all.

After researching the oil cooler; I found out from OReilly Auto Parts Store
that it is an evaporator out of a 1990 Buick Regal for $179.99. Part number
54429.  This evaporator is really built in the wing root and without severe
modification the same part needs to be re-installed.  As usual the reflector
has come thru again.    THANKS
