Hey Paul - Congratulations!!  Are you building a Cozy?
Where'd you get the 1 1/2" adapters for flex hose to your radiator and

water

pump??

Thanx,

 Hi, Joe....actually the airplane is an SQ2000 canard. Similar to a Cozy

or a Velocity. It has the gull-wing doors like the Velocity.
     The radiator hoses are -16 stainless steel braid over rubber hose.

The

fittings are standard Earl's fittings. (Both the hose fittings and the 90
degree -16 AN aluminum fittings that I had welded into the water pump
housing). They are available at several racing supply houses online.  Some
of them I ordered on line, and others I picked up at our local speed shop
because I was in a hurry and wanted them right away. Actually, the local
speed shop's prices weren't so bad, considering there were no shipping
charges.
     As far as the fittings on the radiator, when I ordered the radiator
from C&R Racing, I asked for male -16AN fittings and they were all welded

in

when I received my radiator.  Hope this helps.  Paul Conner

Is AN-16 (1") large enough?  The outlets from the engine are both 1.5" or
AN-24.
I was able to find a couple of places that sold an AN-24 Earl's fitting for
welding to Alum. Pipe - e.g.

Is welding to the water pump a mystical science or should any competent
welder be able to do this?
