Completed engine wiring, plumbing, oil cooler

 

Assembled the oil cooler inlet and tray. Trimmed, deburred, and primed all the parts and then riveted them together. Glued the seals in place and sealed all the gaps with RTV. Installed the AN fittings into the oil cooler. Bolted the tray to the firewall and engine mount. Then mounted the air cooler and inlet. Connected the feed and return lines to the oil cooler.

 

Wired the EGT sensors, CHT Sensors, and Fuel flow sensor.

 

Created a hose for the manifold pressure sensor using Aeroquip AQP hose and reusable connectors. Ran that hose to the sensor block from the primer port in the #3 cylinder head. Also ran a line from the sensor block to the MAP port on the right PMag. I the manifold pressure, fuel pressure, oil pressure, and oil temperature sensors using crimp on, fully insulated, quick disconnect terminals.
