Brief Description:  Install Parts 4&5 and Oil Cooler

After riveting all of the part 4 and 5 components together I installed the baffles on the engine and then bolted the oil cooler in place. There is plenty of clearance now between the oil cooler and the upper cowl.

With the oil cooler sitting as low as it does now, I can't install all 6 mounting bolts. The lowest inboard hole is blocked now by the cylinder cooling fins so there is no way to install that bolt. I should have thought of that before drilling that hole. I'll have to fill that hole somehow.

Also, the back inboard flange of the oil cooler is fairly close to the engine mount. I may end up notching the flange to provide more clearance in that area.
