As part of my engine overhaul I am switching from a forward mounted 7-row oil cooler to the Airflow Systems 2006x 13-row oil cooler. Does anyone have experience placing this cooler in an S-1? My engine is a parallel valve 360 with the Christen inverted system, Bendix magnetos and no other aft mounted accessories (except the fuel pump) hung on a dynafocal mount. Not a lot of available real estste. I would hate to reinvent this particular wheel if someone has already figured it out. Thanks in advance.
