Paul,
       I am still in need of a 13B mount for the Delta
since my earlier design seems to have some weak points.
       I am attaching crude drawings that incorporate
your wide mount design. If you can decipher the
dimensions will you utilize Rhino to see if what I have
crudely drawn is feasible. I apologize for the poor
quality but this is the best my scanner would do. If you
cannot make out the dimensions let me know and I will
send you the originals.

     Thanks
     Kelly Troyer

OK got them Kelly. What you have looks great. What size rad do you want
to use? Any preferences on where you would like to put the rad?
Will work on a 3D.

    Paul,
     Radiators will be in wing strakes behind firewall. If you can find a
 place for the oil cooler put it in.

     Thanks
     Kelly

Kelly,

Is this cowl OK? I put the rad on the left side as it makes the water plumbing
simple. The motor mount needs a bit more work as you can see :-)
The right side can feed the intercooler and oil cooler.
This is about a nine inch diameter hole which is about right
for 250 HP.

Come to think of it the cowl flaps would work better in  the top of this 
cowl as this is part of the lifting surface.

The Dyke Delta is a fascinating airplane. With minor mod's it would 
make a good roadable airplane. Carry a four piece light weight
duct and FOD screen in the baggage compartment to shield the 
prop for highway use. Take the wings off and tow them. Or fold
them up like a carrier plane.

Do you have a three view you can send me?
