Hey guys,

I realize this is an older thread I started, but I figured I'd update it for anyone else looking into cowl cooling on their gasser. Anyway tonight I was bored so I decided to try out building an air dam with louvers for fun. Never had a problem with cooling at all last year by venting the cowl and 2 places in the empty cannister tunnel, but I wanted it for the 33% Yak I just picked up to aid in cooling with no tunnels to vent.

Thanks again for the louvers idea everyone! I do a lot of work on custom PC cooling for overclocking (yes my PC next to me is fully water cooled, and I've custom designed a few peltier coolers too), but never really thought about the air dam idea for a plane. I can't wait to see the temps on the DL-100 & DLE-55 as I plan on installing temp sensors with the Aurora 9 on them.
