The question about putting a radiator in a scoop under the wing was
probably directed to me- it's my intention to put a 24 x 8 x ~3 thick
radiator under the main wing spar, with the scoop opening located 1"
underneath the firewall, and the variable opening exit back by  the
f-408 bulkhead. In order to maintain an acceptable CG, I plan to put the
prop  flange 44" in front of the firewall. This is done more by a WAG
than by calculation.


A stock oil cooler will go up front in the engine cowl, and I will
probably also augment oil cooling with an oil/ water heat exchanger.
Unfortunatly, work has been suspended until my house addition is done in
late January.
