  I have the first cowl for an RV6 from James Aircraft. The fit to the
firewall is excellent. I am working with the FWF package from Powersport and
with this cowl I have enough room under the engine to mount my oil cooler
were it is directly in the airflow. With the oil cooler underneath the
engine it is possible to lower the rad and lay it almost horizontal between
the engine and firewall.
  I am very impressed with Will's workmanship and look forward to getting
this installation completed.
