Can someone please tell me what the status of the cowling mold is and what
I must do to borrow it for a short period of time or if its still open for
circulation?
Best Regards,

Guys
After battling with cooling issues on a plane I am working on I decided to
measure the pressure differential in the cowling. Being very difficuilt to hold
a manometer perfectly vertical it was decided to use either an electronic
measuring device or make up something ourselves.

the cowl
Langford style, completely finished KR-2S cowling for sale, along with
the appropriate spinner and bulkheads, a 2" spacer to fit on top of a WW hub,
and a Prince Q-tip 52x50 prop, which he flew most of last year. This prop is
appropriate for any Corvair powered KR which needs a strong climb
I am going to use the hinge method of joining the top and bottom cowl
halves. The holes for monting the cowl to the firewall are already done. I
am guessing that the best way to do this is as follows. Am I doing
anytihing wrong?
1. fasten bottom cowl half to the firewall
2. drill bottom cowl
Will the RR premold cowling for the KR2S fit over a corvair conversion? Thanks.

Thanks.
It'll probably fit pretty well, although I don't know of anybody that's done
it yet. Their "Revmaster" version comes awful close to fitting the Vair, so
the S cowling should do it. At the

Mark & others,
I won't be needing the molds, as my cowling had to be about 8" longer due to
the lycoming engine and prop extension.

Still looking for a KR1 cowling with revmaster engine if anyone has one
email and I'll ctc you
Thanks Bill
I have a molded KR 1 cowling I bought a number of years ago, I believe I
paid around $130. I'd have to look up where I got it from.

RAY COULD YOU FIND OUT WHERE YOU GOT YOUR COWLING FOR THE KR1 AND POST IT
THANKS BILL
I got my KR 1 cowling for a Revmaster engine from Rand Robinson
Engineering for $170 back in the early 90's. There hasn't been a lot of
demand for them I suppose. There are 2 pix at
<http://home.nycap.rr.com/rrhp> that show the cowling pieces but not to
well or in detail.

"cooling the turbo reduces its efficiency."
I have read about that before. My main concern is to not let the heat sit
and cook the cowling. AS sells several types of heat blanket material,
some of which is adhesive backed, rated up to 2000 degrees and seem like it
would work to keep the cowling

I'd buy some 1/8" Fiberfrax and the thinnest stainless you can find (it's
terrible at conducting heat) and epoxy the stuff to the cowling in the
vicinity of the turbo.
"If I didn't have plenums"
I saw the pictures on your site of the Plenums. It is a very good idea. I
noted that they are similar at least in concept to the original equipment
Plenums that came on the type 2 that I robbed the 71 mm crank from. That
might make a nice winter project. As for the
Orma,
I just had a "brain fart" on your turbo cooling issues. While an insulating
sheild of some sort will protect the imediate area, there is still the issue of
trapped heat in the rest of the cowling. A better solution IMHO is a simple
"trap door"
that is held closed by the flow of cooling
