If you have a 4 flying with a Sam James cowl, would you please post pictures of it? Construction pictures would be great also.

I assisted a friend installing a Sam James cowl on a 160HP RV4 back in 99'. I flew alongside in my 150HP stock cowl RV4 prior to the change for comparison. After 2 months of hard work, sanding, plenum cutting, wheel fairing installation and wing fairing work, he took off with me in chase to see the difference...
Nada.
He did have some cooler temps and looks but not 1 knot faster. I bought alot of 100LL for what he spent on the mods...
My two cents...
