• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

Hey guys The engine I have has an oil cooler adapter part # 62418 sandwiched in between the accessory housing and pressure screen, pictures attached, and my question is which fitting upper or lower is the inlet, and outlet, or does it matter depending on how and where the cooler is mounted? It is my understanding that the O-290s run hot, and that having an oil cooler is a good thing?

I have been doing the oil pump AD and the service bulletin, as well as clean up and paint to make sure all of the accessories will fit and be ready to run. Dave
