Vans aircraft charged me $80 to ship a $71 air scoop without telling me how much shipping would cost! I did my due diligence to select the appropriate scoop for my cowling and engine size. I received valuable input from my friends on krnet. ?I weighted the cost of materials and time to build

I did not have room for an extra oil cooler or one larger oil cooler on the firewall. So elected to use the Revmaster oil cooler. The Revmaster oil pump flows 50% more oil; perhaps that does the trick, don't know for sure. The Revmaster spring temperature regulator does work as advertised

Sid,Had same issues with the 7500BTU cooler from GPAS so I bought another 7500BTU cooler and put them in series.Worked much better.They have a 15000BTU unit that would have done the trick but I was able to stack the 2 and may have saved a little space.Tommy W. On Thu, Jun 30, 2016 at 7:30 AM,

Hi Sid I just look at your photo of your cowling, I just wonder whats the area on the front opening for the inlet of air, compare to the area back of the cowling? Regard Leif NORWAY > To: krnet at list.krnet.org > Date: Wed, 29 Jun 2016 18:34:53 -0400 > Subject: Re: KR> Cowling Air

I had oil cooling issues on my GPASC 2180 VW. Just could not flow enough air through the firewall mounted oil cooler. The cooler was probably too small (3x4x10 inches). Took it all out and installed a Revmaster oil pump and cooler. Part of the Revmaster kit is a new oil pressure control,

Hi Joe, I have a RV6 scoop and as with most things you get what you pay for. I feel the quality of mine is a little below acceptable, a very resin rich part with numerous voids and very heavy for what it is. I'm still unsure if I will use it as is or just use it as a plug. I like the shape but

? ? The RV style air intake is a good idea and works well on the RVs. For my O-200, it's backwards as the cylinder stagger on the Continentals is backwards from the Lycomings. When I got to the point of doing an air box and inlet, I was tired of building and just wanted to get it done, so I

Don't know about the scoop but I used the VANS baffles on my Colt and they were reasonably priced and very well made. Craig www.kr2seafury.com > On June 28, 2016 at 4:13 PM bjoenunley via KRnet > wrote: > > > > > Dear All, > Let's see if I can take care of some business.I have

Joe, Yes, that is exactly what I used . Vans RV6 nose scoop worked perfectly on the KR factory cowl. Cleco it in place and use epoxy and flow to bond it . Fits the standard K round filter on the carb. Cheers Chris Gardiner Sent from my iPad > On Jun 28, 2016, at 4:13 PM, bjoenunley via KRnet
