Another advantage of having the air coming out of the cowling on

I am going to do what ever it takes to make it work.

I am very interested in doing this myself and will enlist on the idea too!  Just
like you, I have the same space restrictions and an all composite airframe to deal
with.  I would rather clean the side instead of the bottom too!  I am leaning a
little to the  single radiator idea for the simplest install and (hopefully) the
least weight .

Send me a sketch of the firewall Marc showing the width, height,
corner radii and position of the motor mount bolts and I will make 
a layout drawing for you. I also need to know the distance from the 
firewall to the prop flange for the Vision cowling.

BTW I measured the distance from the KIS TR-4 firewall to the
door and it is 27 inches rather than 18 as I guessed. The exhaust
should be pretty well mixed with fresh air by that time.
