 Jerry,
Have you bought a spinner yet? I'm planning on a 16" spinner also,
maybe from a mustang II, and was wondering about the price. Your
radiator has the same dimensions and looks like your inlet duct is
similar to what I'm planning.

No,  I have not bought the spinner yet.  I think the Mustang 2 spinner
will be quite expensive.  If we could get a few guys together, we might
be able to get Brian Alley to build us some CF spinners.  His work is
beautiful.    I have not talked to him about this and have no idea if
he would do it or the price.   Jerry

Jerry,

 I contacted Brian Alley and he gave a price of 285$ if my memory serves me. We would make a plug and he'd do the rest. I already have a profile for a parabola that I'd use- 19 inches long and 16 inches in diameter at the base. That is a profile that will blend in to my cowl profile  perfectly. I'm looking at buying a spinner in the next 2 months or so. It would be nice if we could get a few people to maybe save some money by going with a group purchase.
