Brief Description:  Rivet Baffle Seals; Installed Oil Cooler & CHT Pro

Completed riveting the baffle seal material. Ended up one rivet short, so will have to order a few and set the one missing rivet in the back baffle when it is received.

Drilled holes for the magneto cooling air blast tubes into the rear baffle and installed both cooling blast tubes.

Installed the engine breather tube. Cut the hose per the drawings, but would probably have worked better if I had used it un-cut due to the revised oil filter location.

Installed the oil cooler. Purchased a cooler from Airflow Systems for improved cooling over the standard Van's supplied cooler. Had to clip the lower front left corner of the front mounting flange to fit without hitting the engine mount. Installed the cooler and connected the hoses between the engine and cooler. Installed the double cushion clamps to secure one of the hoses to the engine mount.

Installed the 4" SCAT tube between the rear baffle flanged duct and the oil cooler assembly.

Installed the 6 CHT probes into the cylinder heads and torqued to 28 in-lbs using the torque wrench and crow foot set at 90 deg. angle to the wrench.
