Posted: Fri Feb 15, 2008 11:36 am Post subject: Oil Cooler Aero Duct

I made the choice to purchase a premium aero duct to vent my oil cooler vs. the standard scat tube. I am trying to optimize the airflow to the cooler and maximize its efficiency. The aero duct has less convolutions and a smooth silicone inner liner to assist in air flow. It's the same duct used for routing air to race car disk brake assemblies. Unfortunately it comes in 12' sections for ~$150 delivered (from recollection).   

I am offering 3' sections to the list for $35.00 including shipping. I have already sent one section to Don McDonald and he seems to be pleased with this simple mod.  

It's available in any color you want as long as it's Blue (see below).  

If anyone is interested please contact me off list.

I was wondering how many others have opted to install the  engine before the upper forward fuse was permanently rivetted on?  For  those that have installed the engine first, was there any issue with alignment  of the upper fuse to the fuse side skins?  Any issues with pre-loading the  engine mount and fuse before the top fuse was rivetted on?

  

 cheers,

 Ron

I installed the engine before I put on the upper forward fuse.  I 

haven't had any issues with alignment.  Leaving it off definitely made 

wiring the panel and running cables through the firewall much easier 

since I didn't know where I wanted to run everything before the engine 

was on.

The Ducting is long gone. Thanks List. There was a fair amount of interest. Seems like a RV-10 pre cut set (Oil & Heater) would be a nice thing. The blue ducts do look good with the engine mount and gear legs. The Oil duct is only ~16” long. Bummer to have to buy  12’.
