Thanks.

Thanks for the Revmaster solution. I am going to look into it but I am not sure if I have room with all that stuff that I put on the bottom of the engine. What did Richard use? The reason I ask is because I sort of copied the pan that he put under his engine, which I had assumed was for cooling. See you in Mt.

Does anybody know how difficult it is to change it to a bottom location to improve cooling ?

Unless yours is different, the drain is above the cooler. The only good news is that very little oil is in the cooler.

I attached a small scoop over the cooler and it did make a difference of about 10 degrees. It did however block some of the air flow over the cylinders, but it didn't seem to affect my CHT noticeably. It was an experiment and I removed the scoop later simply because my oil temp stayed in the green without it. The lower lip of the opening in my cowl on that side is just flush with the top of the cooler. I wonder if that contributes to something. Was also toying with the idea of cooling the filter. I thought I saw something in a VW rod magizine years ago that looked like a finned cover for the filter. I only have 14 hours on the engine, 1.5 in flight, the rest in taxiing...so claim no solid insight or knowledge. I cant imagine how you could move the stock cooler below. I have seen several set-ups with remote (after market) coolers on the firewall. The extra complexity of piping and directing cool air to the fire wall mounting turned me off to the idea. I have also seen a type three engine with the stock cooler mounted on the top center line of the engine, facing directly into the wind.
