[FC] Oil Cooler

[Patten Del R Civ AFRL Det 8/PKMA]

The 102 wasn't offered but they do end up there...that's what is in mine and
even with the 4 speed it is a terrible engine for the slab sided
Greeenbriers...but I still haven't gotten the 110 that was in mine repaired
yet...and it wasn't offered in mine either!!  Mine seems to run fairly cool
though...230 oil temps even in the summer when I drop the shroulds...210 in
the winter when I am going up hill for awhile...I also have a mystery engine
that is a candidate...it has 60 cylinders which would help with the
cooling!!

Yes.  I spent alot of time chipping away all of the casting flash on these
heads when I had them rebuilt.
 
I seem to remember determining that it was a 102 hp engine by the numbers on
the heads.  I might have to look at that again.  I have been told that 102
hp engines were not offered in FCs.

I think that is an 80hp engine. Don't know for certain. If so, should not 
get THAT hot. Were the heads ever de-flashed? If you are not getting good 
air to all the fins, that could have a big impact on how hot the engine (and

oil) eventually gets on a long run.
