I fit the Vans cowl for my 9A. I have the O-320 D2A engine with a carb and have a Catto 3 blade prop. I bought the 2" extension from Saber - beautiful by the way.
I hate the hinges and I want to install the Skybolt fasteners. Since I will be driving by the James Aircraft factory next month, I plan to pick up a new cowl but not sure what one to order.
My questions are:
1. Do both the standard and long cowls fit my engine - prop?
2. Is there a reason to choose one over the other?
3. Do the larger rings offer more cooling at a speed penalty?
If anyone has done the James cowl with a Catto prop, I would love to see some pictures and get your opinion.
Thanks
