Brief Description: Partial Construction of Oil Cooler Mini-Plenum
I drilled the nutplate rivet holes in the corner bracket and the mini-plenum. I riveted the cylinder #4 baffle with the corner bracket and the side bracket. The K1000-3 nutplates were riveted to the corner bracket on the #4 cylinder baffle. The top, bottom, and sides of the mini-plenum were riveted together and the top and bottom were riveted to the oil cooler doubler. The oil cooler was clecoed to the mini-plenum and that assembly was placed on the baffle behind the #4 cylinder. It looks like the mini-plenum might be placing the oil cooler too far aft, causing interference problems between the oil cooler and the engine mount. Further investigation is required on this.
