Paul,
Here are the pictures of the Renesis engine cooling system I set up for
Ben Schnieder.
Thanks,
Ed
WOW!
That's a beauty Ed. If you want an OSH winner goto Ed.
Drop the front of the rads down a few more inches and come
in over the top of the rads with a Kays and London wedge s
shaped diffuser.
What happened to the silicone water hose? I see you got the
right hose clamps on there. Constant torque.
Turn the rads around with inlets and outlets at
the back and you will shorten the rad hoses.
For the new guys that is a Will James James Aircraft RV8
cowl specifically designed for rotary engines.
More pictures with the next message.
Paul Lamar ...No rotor no motor.

One small correction on the pictured cowl. It is a variant of the RV-8 cowl
specifically built to fit the RV-6, 7, and 9 aircraft. I have this same
cowl for my RV-9A and '89 13B NA engine and plan to work with Ed on the
cooling setup also.
Best Regards
Dean Van Winkle
BTW if one is using the RX8 motor and a 2.8:1 gear box
the intake runners need to be a lot shorter.
Ed do you have enough room to put the plenum on top
of the engine? You could make it lower and flatter.
