Does anybody have any good solutions for baffles? The baffles I have came with the engine, so they fit very well on the engine, but not so well under the cowling. I'm particularly interested in transitions from the cooling air inlets in the cheek cowls. My engine is an IO360. Model is S18. Thanks.

Hey Jim,
Are the templates for the transitions from the cooling inlets to the baffles? If so, please send them to me. I think I have the rest figured out.

Thanks,
Frank

Not really. They are basically the Vans stuff cut down to Thorp size. It has forward Ramos that go into the inlet. But nothing fancy.
