Does someone have specific STC or other info concerning larger or
second oil cooler?

Does someone have a sample 337 regarding installation of external
mirrors?

Frank, I have installed the larger non congealing oil coolers on 0
and IO 470s , it takes the base and the cooler, and and because they
are larger, it takes some inlet work to use the larger cooler. I have
also added to the size of the cooling lip to draw more air thru it on
several planes. The non congeiling cooler was sold by contenental as
a upgrade kit for various engines, and came standard on others. Its
been quite a while since I did one, but I remember it took very little
work. a couple of shorter studs maybe? , it is mostly for very cold
weather , but it also lowers the summer temps. They are not a lot
bigger, but they do help. I also looked at the RAM baffel kit, and
copied it, It also helped as it seals better. The 182 installation is
kinda loose, mosty I think because in normal operations they are not a
cooling problem. Are the cowl flaps set to go full open and a little
more? John Barron

Now I see, a 59 model, no cowl flaps right, try the bigger outlet lip
if you haven't yet. I added 3 inches. jb
