Finished most of the Oil system install today. I've seen reports of the Scat flange's that are spot welded/soldered to the oil cooler bracket breaking, and so I made some simple reinforcing clips from .032" and pop riveted them to the scat flange, It may not keep the flange from cracking, but should keep it from comming off and creating a major inflight heat problem. Mounted the Breather tube per plans. ( I forgot to drill a hole in the Faux firewall for the upper adel clamp attachment, so had to reverse frill it from inside w/ #40 drill and then enlarge on the faux firewall to make room for and AN3-10 bolt. Re the oil cooler, I debated installing it, as I have heard that there are more efficient coolers, and living in AZ I will probably need all of the cooling I can get, However, The options are VERY expensive and I need to do some more research, Additionally cooling is complex and involves a lot of factors that will be examined cloosely diring Phase 1. ..... so I installed the Van's cooler ----- for now. I'm short an DG -12 clamp, which i'll pick up tomorrow am, and anchor the one line to the upper engine mount.
