I won't be buying one until maybe in the fall after it's flying, but
it may very well be useful if you're flying up in the Michigan parts
like you may. Not at all in the summer, but only winter. We had
a plate on our last plane that got installed once the OAT was
consistently under 40 degrees. It had about a 1.5" hole in the
center, but otherwise the oil cooler air was blocked off. It greatly
helped keep the operating temperature proper in the winter. Without
it, the oil temp would never make it into the green, even after a
full power climb. You really want that oil temp to get up to
I think it's 185 degrees (don't quote me on that), or more, but that
doesn't happen in the winter around here on some engines without
the cooler flow restrictor.
