WillI did have my initial flight back on Nov. 1, =9919;
however, it was a short one due to engine overheating. I had fallen in
love with my tuned exhaust which placed a lengthy serpentine of exhaust
pipe under my cowl, and have believed that, even after wrapping all the
pipe & muffler w/ heat shield, I was introducing way too much heat under
the cowl and was compromising my cooling system.
After a nasty bout with shingles over the winter, I=99ve now gone
to straight pipes with twin =9CSwiss Mufflers=9Dthe
installation is just now complete. I=99m running 50/50 coolant
(265 deg. boiling point) and can now get almost 20 min. on the ground
before coolant temps reach 210 deg.
At the moment I=99m in the midst of retuning the engine,
relocating my OAT, and having another go at sealing some gaps around my
radiatorsfeeling a bit frustrated.
