HI Guys,

I’ve just gotten into the 3^rd Volume of Alternative Engines and it’s
really great read. 56 articles and project studies have a lot of
conversion information on specific automotive, turbine, diesel and turbo
engines, including Subaru. Each includes a complete descriptive of the
electronic ignition, fuel systems, cooling, mechanicals, installation
variations and performance. Special articles on radiators installation
and sizing, evaluating engine performance, re-drives, planetary, geared
and belted are described for large and small engines. Considerably
strong outlines on the EA81 and the EJ22 Subaru are provided to also
compare them with air-cooled TC engines. Both are described as used with
belted or direct drive props for 100 to 130 hp.

The 3^rd Volume's illustrations drawings and photos are 1000-word
quality, well worth the price for someone considering an alternative
engine. The automotive- conversion can save you a whole lot on initial
purchase, fuel and general maintenance.

For those who would ask, it’s $42.00, ordered thru
www.ContactMagazine.com <http://www.contactmagazine.com/> or by phone at
1-559-584-3306.

Fly Safe,

Larry McFarland 601HDS at www.macsmachine.com

Hi Terry,
My cooling system is works very well in high temps. I've flown
consistently in 95-degrees temps,
but block temps stay near 210, oil is 220, and coolant ranges between
187 and 198. EGTs are 1375 cruise,
and climb to 1450 full out. I have #2.78 needle jets and #178 main jets
in my Bing Carburetors. (Winter jets were
2.76 and 176 respectively). Climbing and running to at least 3500 feet
makes the Bings work best in hot weather.
I often have to taxi and idle for long times at our airport and have no
overheat issues. Last year, I did forget to change to
summer jets and had cancel a trip to Zenith's open house because of high
oil temps. So, this past winter, I left the
"summer jets" in and found it didn't make much of a difference in cold
weather.
