Until I see a
radiator installed  underneath the engine, that provides adequate cooling,
combined with  a good looking, slick cowl,  I remain sceptical.   I know it
can be done, but it will not be easy and it may not be better than the other
alternatives.       Jerry

What do you have against the looks of this airplane Jerry?

I've looked at this photo many times. It looks very good to me.   How is it
cooling? How big is the radiator? Do  you have a pic with the cowl off?

No pictures and unfortunately I think this is the one that Everett crashed.
Allan Tolle flew a similar airplane back and fourth across the country several times 
and entered it in x-country races as well as setting the all time unofficial time
to climb to 3000 feet. As I recall it went about 238 MPH in the races.

I do have a picture of Mike Wills airplane that is laid out in a similar
fashion. Equally good looking.
