I really do enjoy hearing from others and helping folks! However, please keep in mind the person on other side of your computer over here leads
a life and I am not compensated for my time related to my blog. Though I try to respond quickly, sometimes I can't.
Also note that many of the questions I receive are addressed by the content in the blog. Be sure to read things carefully and use the search feature of the blog (visible when on a desktop).
Thanks for your understanding. I look forward to hearing from you!
The contact form appears to be down. I would love to get the updated v3 CAD files for the oil cooler if possible. Thank you for your blog! It's been very helpful during the build process.
ReplyDeleteHi Derek. I just checked the contact form and it's working. Is your JavaScript enabled? In any case, please try again so we can connect and I can get the files to you. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI completed my RV-14A project a little over a year ago and have accumulated about 90 hours. Thanks for your blog. It was one of the resources I used often during my build process.
ReplyDeleteI have an issue with oil temperature as have many -14 builders. I have the original IO-390 engine configuration, but during my build I incorporated the 5” SCAT tubing to the oil cooler. Even with that, I’m routinely seeing 200 to 205 degree oil temperatures. (Not excessive, but I’d prefer in the 190’s).
If I follow you correctly, you have a 3D print file for the oil cooler transition duct for 5” SCAT mating with the original oil cooler as supplied by Vans.
A couple questions
Have you tested that configuration with the original cooler?
Where were you able to get a part printed with aluminum?
Is it possible for you to provide me with a print file?
BTW…I attempted to submit this question on your blog contact form, but it didn’t seem to be working
Thanks…Lew MacKechnie
