Paul I do appreciate all the help and the wealth of information that you
have been given  me.You see I am new to the rotary engine and I have
just started to read about it.I have been going to previous rotary
builder's web site and all of them have been complaining of overheating
problem,I guess most of them have not updated their web sites for a long
time that is why none of them have mentioned anything about solving the
heating problem.I guess I feel lucky that I have your guidance.I think
that the least I can do is to buy your book,just tell me how to order
it.

By the way what do you recommend for oil cooler,using an A/c core or
use the stock oil cooler?.Also the hoses for the water cooling and the
oil,what diameters,type,where to order them and how many feet of
each.You also recommended to me once over the phone a fuel pump can you
tell me again the brand and where to order.You see I want to order as
much as possible to complete the project since these things are hard to
find here and it take quite a while to get it shipped here to
Saipan.Hence I would like to get all these parts in the container.Thanks
again.

Michael

That is true. People tend not to up date their web site once they
start flying. Send me the links and I'll read them and comment.
Some are not on the newsletter. Those that were or on in the past
12 years tend to have success cooling.

Send me your mailing address for the book and I'll collect when
you get here. The book will answer a lot of your questions.

I have a stock RX7 cooler that would work but it may be plugged.

Let me work on a KIS Cruiser 3D and Ill see what fits.

Once I started doing these 3D's for free people started
having success with cooling. One can try all sorts of configurations
and see what fits.

This one shows the stock RX7 oil cooler mounted along side the rad.
The advantage is it saves one cooling hole in the stock cowl.
The stock cowl will have to be modified for the main cooling
hole located under the spinner. No problem for a boat person
and polyester resin.

The cowl 3D is not perfect yet as I am still working on it. Cowls
are the toughest to replicate in 3D. I am sure everything fits
as I tried the stock cowl installed over this firewall forward
configuration.

I think the inter cooler could go on the right
side the same as Dave Leonards configuration.

Order a couple of fuel pumps from Tracy and have them  dropped
shipped to me. People use two. One as a back up. You will also
need a pressure regulator. People seem to like the TWM product.

I'll get back to you on the cooling hose type, exact size and part
number. Basically it is 1.5 inch ID Blue Silcone hose and breeze hose
clamps from McMaster Carr.

I am sending this to everybody as it contains questions many people ask.
