I too have the SJ cowl and pleneum, and have had the same cooling problems. I now
can climb and keep oil temps +/- 210F and CHT's under 400F when it's hot OAT.
In cruise I run LOP -50F or ROP 150F and the oil is 195-205F and CHT 385-395F
on #5 or #6; the rest of the CHT's are lower. These are the mods I have done
in order:
1. Installed 4 louvers, 2 on bottom, 2 on side of cowl like a C-182
2. Cut the exit area of the cowl so it opened it up at the rear about 1 1/2"
3. Installed a new pleneum from Sam that is more wedge shaped ( higher in the rear)
which gives more volume for incoming air
4. Installed the larger rings
I have done speed checks with two other stock RV-10's at the same power settings
and our speeds were pretty much the same.
I plan on putting some air dams in front of #1&2 cyl to see if I can get #5&6
CHT's down a little
My wife, Amy Laboda, did a write up in Kitplanes a while back on the process, so
check those out. Give me a call if ya have any questions 239-567-2271. Blue
