Cold Weather Kit
Cessna apparently makes a cold weather kit that restricts airflow into the engine compartment. With winter upon us, I wonder if anyone has used this, and what they think of it. It of course does not apply to the Turbo guys, who generate enough heat, but the IO-360, in my 69 337D, was running cool this weekend, with outiside temps about -20 C. Oil never got real warm and CHT's were mid low. I only have the original Cessna guages, so don't ask what the exact temp was. Oil was someplace around 120 (around 1/3 from 75 to 180), and CHT's were correspondingly low. EGT was up where I normally run.
Just a thought.
