Paul,   I appreciated  your visit today. As far as I know you are the
only 182 size aircraft to ever use the "big" runway.

   The only problem I have had with putting  the radiator inside the cowl
was finding adequate room for big outlets while retaining the sleek look
and performance of the Tailwind.     The cowl flaps on the side with the
faired ducting  just might work.    The ducting would not be much more
than a little sheet metal wrap over the gear leg supports.

If you have time,  I would like to see a sketch of how the Barry mounts
would be used with the pan plate.   Seems like the muffler  and the
upper brace would be occupying the same space.
Also,  how far out can one extend the pan plate?   It is .250" thick,
2024 T4.  If the forward mount could be centered on the forward exhaust
port and the plate extended from the engine case about 6 inches,  it
might work.   Can the Berry mounts be  horizontal?    I need to get my
hands on one.

Yes you are right about that. I forgot. Forget the pan mounts with your
muffler. Use the motor plate trick. Always gives more room around
the engine for turbos and mufflers.

I should have gotten some clarification on the PSRU adaptor plate while
you were here.  The drawings did not come through very clearly and  even
if they were clear, I need help in their interpretation.

I'll send you some pictures.
