Hi Joe, I'm surprised it was that heavy. I'll have to weigh the bottom but the top I currently have is only 5lbs.

The cowl was orignally bought from Rand but it weighed 18# before any fitting and changing. I pulled a mold off and sold the cowl and made the one that is on the plane. It is made from carbon fiber and weighed only 6.5# before I started modifiying, It probably weighs about 8# now . The orignal way had an out side scoop for the carb but the aerocarb did not llike it so I changed the bottom to enclose the carb and filter. I have done some testing on the intake holes and think that I canclose them up by several sq. inches on each side with no effect on cooling.

NVAERO said his cowl was like yours. I just received one from another location that has to be a VW cowl and so as William has not responded I am still in need of a Cowl.
