How about this approach for cooling a Type 1 VW? The 2180 VW is from Great Plains Aircraft Supply. The inlets are homebuilt fiberglass and the ducts that attach to the cylinders are standard stock VW cylinder cooling shrouds ($23 per pair from a local speed shop) with some trimming to fit up to the inlets. It all fits under a RR factory cowl. http://websites.expercraft.com/sidwood/index.php?q=log_entry&log_id=3874 1 I have not run this installation yet. Your results may vary.
