Yes I do have an oil cooler door. The builder did a really nice job on it.
I have checked the operation of it and it is working properly.

I am new to the RV 7a empennage also and I had the same question about the trimming
the rear spar flange for clearance of the elevator horn. I called Van's
and they confirmed that you remove only one inch from both flanges. I placed
my spar reinforcement bars in and drew a line along the bottom edge of the bars
for one inch in both left and right directions from the center and trimmed on
the line. There is no need to go into the radius of the flange.
