Hi Paul Steve and I send you our greetings and a special wish that
you and yours enjoy a wonderful Christmas. I don't know whether we
sent you photos of our radiator duct work. Some may be interested in
see these photos attached. Work on the plane has been slow of late
due to other pressures but the engine is back in a Steve is well
advanced with the wiring. We should be able to fire it up early in
the new year. Cheers Bob & Steve Perth

You guys are doing nice work on that Glasair.

Merry Christmas

Paul Lamar

Hi Paul Here are some more photos of our coil and alternator cooling
set up.

Incidentally the opening on the inside of the duct is to run two 25mm
 dia pipes . One to cool a box containing the 4 coils and the other
to provide cooling to the alternator.

May be of interest to some. Any comments welcome. Bob and Steve
Perth


==================

I don't see an air-outlet for the coil-box

Good point.

There are gaps where the coil outlets attach to the leads and the lid is not
sealed so enough air may escape that way. It will be easy enough to make a
hole in the opposite end of the box to the inlet however we only want to
achieve enough cooling as we don't want to introduce unnecessary air into
the engine compartment small as that might be. Maximise air flow thru
radiators is our aim
Bob.
