  1. Does anyone have a picture of the mods they made to use the speedster radiator fairing for the rotax 912 radiator?   I'm assuming that the 912 radiator is the one to use- I'm in Texas, so it does get warm every now and then. I'd kicked back and forth using the smaller radiator, and using the heater core as an adjunct radiator if needed, but..
    Any pics would be appreciated!
    Thanks,

  2. Anybody need a side-mount radiator off a "B" model Avid. I'm cleaning house and it is in imminent danger of a one-way trip to the recycling yard.You pay shipping from 17044. This was mounted to the right side of the fuselage.

  4. I have a leak in my radiator and having issues finding a place to repair it.  If anyone has a good one for a reasonable price, please let me know.
  5. Folks, my firewall forward project is coming along and I'm getting close to firing it up for the first time after first completing final electrical and fuel line connections.
     
    The PO had 3 radiators on this '99 C-model. What appears the OEM issue has/was mounted on the belly and also two in the cheek/nose. This seems like overkill to me so I've removed the cheek radiators and will operate with the belly mount. I've also installed a thermostat which I'm reasonably certain the previous build did not have. Further it also seems crazy to have those cheek radiators directing hot/warm air directly into the carb intake - talk about a power suck! Now at least the carbs will be getting plenty of cool air.
     
    I'm soliciting opinions from the collective on this setup. Will this belly radiator be adequate enough? I've posted some before pics below before I started on it and took the firewall off. I've reinstalled the belly radiator in the same position.
     
    Also, I read somewhere a 582 user was running is cooling system unpressurized, the idea being less likelyhood of coolant pushing past seals and into the crankcase. Thoughts on this? If this is a good idea, exactly how would you set this up? Simply a non-spring loaded expansion chamber cap?
     
    Oh, one other thing - what's the concensus on installing firesleeves on the fuel lines firewall fwd in these aircraft? Necessary?
