Brief Description:  Baffles 1 Oil Cooler

The cowls fit except for very stiff hinge pins, which I've ensured will loosen up, so it is time to do the baffles. I've got Ban's Baffle kit for the IO360 and a bunch of sheet metal parts. And best hing is I've got plans and drawings.

The plan starts on cylinder 4 where the oil cooler goes. I'll follow the plans and attach the oil cooler to the baffles. I see on the forum there are varios engine mounts and firewall mount options, but I'm trying to stick to plan, the best I can.

First thing I noticed is the bolt arrangement for holding on the oil cooler. They are different. And you can't hae the cooler too low or the bolt will hit the cooling fins. Plans say get the cooler as high as possible. So with a little judgement I did.
