Second pic shows the completed installation.  At the pump outlet

at the

top you see the air bleed (AN o-ring plug drilled up the center

and out

the side just below the o-ring. Loosen it a turn and the air can
escape), the pressure sender below that, and the low level

sender

at the

bottom of the overflow bottle.

 Al,

    How much can you flex with system ? It looks lke it is fairly

rigidly

mounted to the fiewall, what happens if the engine rocks under

acceleration

or decelration (torque) ?

Good question.  The aluminum tubing sort of "floats", and is connected
to the filler neck and the fixed radiators by short sections of hose.
It is also connected to the pump inlet/outlet by sections of hose.

The

filler neck and overflow are bolted to the firewall, but the aluminum
tubing is not.  The tubing is clamped together in two places with the
back part of the clamp a wood block (painted silver) which rests

against

the firewall, but is not bolted to the firewall.  You can see one of

the

clamps in the photo of the installed bottle, and the other in the
attached pic of the left side of the installation.  Look just below

the

oil filter (one of dual filters).

This photo also shows the oil plumbing to the wing root cooler, and

the

hose to the heater.

You do beautiful work Al.

Thank you, Paul.  Coming from you, that is indeed a high compliment.
Now if it just flys as good as it looks . . .

Right.... and cools too :)

BTW I am thinking of going to Ok in a couple of weeks and taking a better
look at Brice Duanay turbo 3 rotor Cozy. As I remember it had the stock
sequential turbo chargers. Maybe I'll do that next Monday on my way back
from Mass.
