Looks pretty good. It is a good sign that the price of used rotary
powered airplanes is going up :-) I have not wasted my time for the
last 18 years :-)

I think that was built by Rino Lacomb. Here are some more pictures.

I see he used a single, thick water radiator up front with a ducted,
side-mount oil cooler.   Turbo, too!

He also used “turning vanes” to get the air started around the
pylon.

I emailed the owner to ask how it was performing.

It is cold up there most of the year :-)

An ambient one degree F drop is a 1% improvement in the cooling.

New brunswick annual temperature is between 32°F and 55°F.  Those
are average so maximum and minimum extend those some by probably
about 30°F. Temps moderated by ocean temperatures near by. Cold
current comes down from the Arctic Ocean and a warm current comes up
from the Gulf of Mexico. They meet there and Nova Scotia a and create
heavy fog, rain and snow in winter. Three feet of snow at a time
happens somewhat frequently.

The ambient is certainly a big factor.  Our Florida summer days with 95 degree temps are a cooling challenge for many aircraft.  My C337 occasionally redlines the rear engine temps during taxi in the summer, but has no significant issues once airborne.
