Enclosed are pictures with just the bottom cowling in it's approximate position to show

 the available room around and under the engine, as well as two pictures of the factory cowling (with a Lycosaurus), which

shows

 the position and sizing of the armpit scoops.  Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.  Thanks for taking the time
 to
 assist.  Paul Conner

My humble suggestion is to put the armpit scoops UNDER the wing- Higher pressure there- that's why airplanes fly. Looks like
you've got room to do so.

Just my two cents.

Paul C, IMHO get a subscription to the Central States Association newsletter and buy the back issues as far back as Terry
Shubert can furnish. In a couple of evenings you can review almost every cooling experiment ever done on a composite canard
aircraft. You'll notice that the phrase, "I made the inlets bigger and the temperatures went up" occurs often.
