 Paul, there is plenty of room in the lower part of the nose bowl on
 each side for a Setrab  (8.25 x 7.5 x 2)  These can be mounted on
 brackets welded to the lower Barry Mount assembly.  They will be fed
 from the corners of the under-the-spinner inlet.   When  you get  a
 chance, please take a look at it in Rhino.    Thanks,  Jerry

Don't look good. The air might try to go in the back side.
Perhaps only one in the back on the cold side would work.
This is the needed five inch dia. duct.

I still say you are better off with the stock cooler on the
cold side the long way.

Strange,  I have a wood box representing the Setrab that seems to fit
with plenty of room .   Air tight duct to the inside of the cooler,
no way for air to go anywhere else.  Obviously, I need to think about
this further.   Thanks,  Jerry

It is highly dependent on the exact shape of the cowl in
that area. Do you have a cowl to try it in? The cowl I sent
you renderings of is the one I am working with.
