Norm
I am replying directly to you rather than the list, because I do not have
time to reply to dozens of email query's.
I have over 1000 hours with my James Cowl. I find that as a general
statement it is 1 to 5 lbs heavier than the stock Vans cowl. (I have both)
They are on average 5 to 10 knots faster and they cool better. Actually, I
have found that in the winter time (wisconsin) they over cool with the 4 3/4
inch inlet rings supplied. I remedied that by designing and making
rings with a smaller inlet diameter (4 inch) for winter time use. I also
made a set of 3 1/2 inch opening for operations below zere temps.
You may call me any time CST @ 920 619 6968 (cell phone -let phone ring).
Do not reply by Email, I only look at it occassionly .
