How much did that cost and how much does it help?

You really don't want to know what it cost to do the prototype! I try not to think about it too much, but I couldn't stand the way the front of my Mooney looked. It lowered the CHT's by 20 degrees F and I picked up 6 knots of speed. I hope to get a little more out of the cooling but carbureted engines run hotter than the IO's.

so is @Sabremech an engineer or a&p? or just really smart

I'm an A&P/IA and have a company that manufactures airplane parts and tooling, GDS Aero. I work for a corporate flight dept full time and then because I just can't get enough airplane stuff, do the other stuff in my spare time.
