G’Day from OZ,
I have Series V Kitfox with a Jabiru 3300 engine. If anyone has that combination I’d like to hear from them about the mounting of the oil cooler and the results that got reference oil temperature.
Cheers from Australia.

Cy,
This Jabiru engine list is somewhat inactive. The well used list monitored by the Jabiru dealers is at www.yahoo.com The Yahoo "group" is called the Jabiru engine list. I suggest you try there.

Hi Jeff,
Thanks for mentioning the Yahoo group. I just signed up there.
I am building a Zodiac XL and will be moving into the engine area early next year. My plan is to buy the FWF kit for the 3300 and install it as close to "Standard" as possible.
I would appreciate any comments or decision level advice.
Thanks,
Paul

Cy,
Oil cooler selection, particularly in a hot climate is more about what you can accommodate in the cowling than the engine’s specific requirements. In short, the bigger the better and if the weather turns cool and your oil temp in cruise drops below (say) 85C then you can blank-off the part of the cooler to raise the temp.
Here in USA we use either the lighter / smaller automotive oil cooler (about 11x5x1.5 inches) or nowadays I prefer the Positech PC4211 which is a purpose-made aircraft cooler but more expensive and thicker, more like a ‘brick’ in shape and not as easy to accommodate in the cowling. It does, however cool better. Coolers are generally mounted on brackets below the engine and provided with some anti-vibration damping, like using wiring grommets between the mount screws and the brackets, but it obviously depends on where the air inlet on the cowl is. It’s also important with any cooler to ensure the air is ducted onto the cooler so that none escapes around it – this gets you the best oil cooling efficiency and doesn’t disturb the cylinder cooling airflow in the cowl. You want to be running oil temps between about 85C and 110C.

This list is monitored regularly by at least 2 Jabiru dealers. I prefer this list for its ability to deal with pictures and the fact there’s less spam advertising here, but the majority of activity remains on the YahooGroups list.
