Yes, I expect they must know by now as the catalogue is dated for last year.

DO NOT ARCHIVE

What type of radiator did you get ? I would love to get my temps down a  
little especially during the summer in NC. My temps are high with two people in

climbout.

Hi Folks,

Here's a few valuable reminders I've found for our cooling system. See 
below.

(Remember the back of a PA system, with large dull black (black anodized 
alimunium) cooling fins for cooling the output stage.. )

-----------

Radiators are painted black for a reason. Black is the best colour for 
heat dissipation. As radiators age they corrode and the paint flakes off. 
ACT QUICKLY! First, use a soft brush to clean the fins. A spray can of 
black paint is relatively cheap and can save you big dollars. Not only 
will spraying the radiator as soon as it shows signs of corrosion improve 
cooling, it will also prolong the life of the component. Remember though, 
if the paint is too thick it will slow down heat transfer and make the 
radiator less efficient.

Dear Listers,
I am looking at Kitfox Classic IV 1200 project with VW engine.  What 
think you about using VW engine for this plane?  I have no experience 
and scant knowledge of this power plant.
Many thanks,
Ken

I lot of people like the VW engine.  I personally thought that there was not
enough power without extensive mods. I chose the suberu con.  I have not
heard of any problems and can recoment some people to talk to in tha kansas
city area.  The dawn patrol here has a bunch of Newports with VW powed
