I decided to go with a baffle. It is a circular light ply ring that is set at the mid-point of the Saito cylinder. It will guide the cooling air through the fins plus it will provide support to the dummy engine. I will glass it into the cowling when it is done and it will come off complete with the cowl when dis-assembled. Also installed the stock tail wheel assembly yesterday, it went on really easy. It's going to need some black paint. Installed a slightly over-sized tire for better grass field control. Leo
