Brief Description: Trim Oil Cooler Air Intake Baffle For Baffle-Seal
Made varios measurements and estimations for how much to trim off of the oil cooler air intake baffle to allow the lower cowling section to be installed and provide adequate gap for rubber baffle seal to be installed for proper seal against the lower cowlign inner surfaces.
Trimmed the oil cooler air intake baffle sides and installed on engine. Then installed the lower cowling and it went on without physical obstruction. Next step will be to use the semi-rigid borescope to take photos internally in the firewall/cowling interface area to verify clearances and baffle seal installation expectations.
Trimming the baffle's side length to fit in the cowling, and allow room for baffle seal installation.
Oil cooler air intake baffle trimmed to allow cowling installation and gap for baffle installation.
