If we don't move the right side FW hard points inboard on Bruce's AC the CCF rad will still fit. We might need a blister or two on the cowl
here and there.

It is hard to model the cowl accurately without a bunch
of cross section slices. If Tango Company has and old cowl lying
around they are willing to slice up and send me dwgs of
I will do a 3D dwg for them. That will give themn a starting
point.That way they can check the fit on different engine
installations. This cowl shape shown is just a guess.

I got two cross counter flow rads in the works.
It looks like no problem Tig welding them up. I have
done a bit of test welding already. Aluminum welds are
always configuration problematic.

For the people that don't have my book a cross counter flow rad  is a more effective heat exchanger configuration in therms of installation volume consumed.

In plain English it is smaller for a given cooling :)
