Yep, I'll do the shield if necessary, but some of that stuff is going away now. I could even roll it on the bottom and optimize flow as it exits the cowlingThat's an old photo, taken just as I set it all up. It's thoroughly firesleeved now. This stuff is all fairly minor now. I could just fly it just like it is...just can't let it idle for 20 minutes, which is probably not the end of the world. But I'd like to eliminate as many known problems as posssible before I fly it.
