Hey all,
I am installing piston skirt squirts in my Parallel Valve, IO-360 engine and from what I hear, I need to change my oil cooler from the baffle mounted style to another type.
I am aware of the Showplanes style, but am leaning towards the firewall mounted RV-10 (VA-186) setup.
Questions:
1) does the VA-186 fit on the RV-7 firewall adequately?
1b) if so, pictures would help in positioning it correctly. Please provide...
2) In keeping with this RV-10 mount, I plan on using the EA OIL COOLER 20006A with it, as provided from Vans and would like to know if anyone with this setup is willing to share empirical data with regard to oil cooling performance.
Thank you in advance.
