Hi Guys,
Looked at the plans for 2 hours, trolled the site and internet now for an hour, but just don't get the right answer or picture, so I am going to ask...
What is the correct way to seal the inner baffles behind the spinner, where it transitions from the sides of the inlet to the back???
Heres the problem...the top cowl inlet ramps stop abruptly where they move inboard. If you cut the inboard baffles down to match the contour of the inboard inlet ramps, the baffles don't transition nicely to the top of the cowl (i.e. from the side of the inlet ramp to the top of the cowl)
Outboard no problem, but inboard??? I just don't get it??? Frustration and I don't have a RV nearby to check out!!
Do I need to cut the inner baffles down to the contour of the inlet ramps and then straight up like my blue line? The inlet ramps don't run all the way inboard to give you a nice contour as the outboard ones do??? (In the picture below the top has already been trimmed to match the cowl..)
If I do how do you seal it on the transition???
Pictures and or advice appreciated???
Thanks in advance...Kind Regards
Rudi
