Thomas,
The one I have sitting around for when I get that far is from "Pace 
Products," Part # 11654.

  Subject: Europa-List: radiators, coolers and colors


  You might recall a question I raised several months ago in asking 
whether painting the water radiators of a Europa in white would affect 
their ability to cool. (black body radiation).

  To close the case, I can now report that the color white does not 
affect the cooling ability ~ it does make insects more visible though. I 
figure, the flying-by air molecule does not have sufficient time to 
check for color of the radiator (due to Europa speeds) when it expands 
thus cooling our cylinder heads (this applies to Rotax-driven Europas).

  I have successfully raised oil temperatures though by living in 
Southern California and installing those Xtra high compression pistons 
and will install a second oil cooler in sequence to the original cooler 
and was wondering whether anybody in Europa Universe does have a cooler 
oxydizing around in his workshop for a good new home ? Europa, the 
company, does not only stock them any more - they do not even remember 
where they originally got them from.

  be well,
