Is it just me or are there others out there that pour through the manual, hour after hour to decipher cryptic Van's blueprints etc.?
I was building the baffles and the front ramps inside the front of the cowling and was trying to figure out what them meant by "bend a line from the intercept of the cowling to the outside baffle into the ramp"
OK so..... i could not figure out how bending the ramp down would help the cause at all of allowing inlet air to find it's way over the cooling cylinder fins.
DING! The light shines and omitted from the instructions was the simple words "bend UP" to contact the under surface of the cowl inlet lip" How simple!
That my friends is the way to spend four hours on a Saturday afternoon deciphering Van's Plans! Any body else do this?
I am booked at 1200 hours building 2400 hours reading.... lol
