| Subject: | MGL Odyssey Install in RV-8 |
Dear Fellow RV-8 Builders, several readers have indicated they have installed and
fly behind the Odyssey. Whom among this fine group took photos of the installation
and would be willing to share how they did it. I do not want to reinvent
the wheel or become an "expert" EFIS installer. I just want to fly. Hope to
hear from those experienced builders. Best regards, Bill of Georgia

Matt,
I used the SW 10631S oil cooler, remotely mounted it, and it is holding
the oil temp on my IO-390 at 180-183 (the ideal range according to Lyc).
Photos enclosed.

Hey, what size oil cooler to the RV-10's use? Is it the same on on the
-7's and
-8's? "Oil Cooler II". Or, do they use a larger one?
I've got a SW10610R for my IO-390 on the RV-8 which is a monster sized
cooler.
The stock "FF-709" mounting bracket is way too small. Does Van's have a
larger
one available? What's used on the RV-10?

Matt,
I would guess that if the manufacturer used it, then it is suitable.
Contact McCauley at 316-517-5800 or _customercare@mccauley.textron.com_
(mailto:customercare@mccauley.textron.com) .

I pulled one of the screws out to have a closer look, and it appears that
on the
McCalley governor they've used a dab of Green locktite on the shaft of the
screw.
There's defiantly no safety wire holes in the screws. Does Green Locktite
seem sufficient?

Hey Matt -
the oil cooler on the 10 mounts on the firewall - There's a specific
mount that comes with the firewall forward kit. Not sure which exact
oil cooler it is, but I'm pretty sure that the 8 can't use the mount.
There's a picture of it here on my site:

Matt,
I upgraded my -10 oil cooler to the extra large AFP 2008 which
left me with the RV-10 oil cooler I plan to use on my 8A. You do not
want the RV-10 oil cooler mount for your 8 project. It is one of the
worst designed components on the -10. The "wedge" as it is known does
not allow for airflow over the entire surface of the cooler fins
creating dead spots and much less efficient cooling system. I believe
AFP now sells diverter fins for the wedge but you are better off
creating a direct ram impact mount or the like to properly take
advantage of the oil cooler.
Robin
