 Paul,  you can count on my help.  I too am booked up until the end of
 Nov. Any time after that is good for me.  If it takes one day or two
 that is fine.  Jerry

OK I was planning on taking some more pressure measurements so that
will be fine. If you could build the box up there using 3/16 inch copper
tubing for the velocity taps that would save a lot of time.

 I will need an idiot proof drawing.  Jerry

OK :-) What are the exact dimensions of your rad core? Just the core!
Are you planning on mounting it long ways?
