Whenever it's convenient...

Sure.  Duct tape to locate it, and a block of wood wedged between the inlet and
the opposite skin to hold it tight.

I found it easier to have the duct attached during the gluing process.

FWIW-

Hi Dennis

>Has anybody out there ever sucessfully mounted an oil cooler on the firewall 
>of an 8? If so do you have pictures? 

I hung mine from and between the enging mount tubes aircraft right.  Angle on the
coler mounting flanges connects to the eng mount tubes with P clamps.  There
is an aluminum angle strut from the upper eng mount tube to the outboard edge
of the cooler make it rock solid.  A 4" scat picks off the right rear baffle
and makes about a 90 deg turn downward.  This connects to a composite diffuser
that mounts to the face of the cooler.

So far, so good.  We'll see how it works when it flies!
