Bob, Gilles and all,
sounds great this idea. I am very interested in a Bell Intercooler. My
project is not an Europa, nor a MCR,(it's a modified HB207 ALFA, as you may
see on page 26 in the Spruce Catalog). The intercooler is the same, only the
connections may vary.

Bob, Gottfried and all,
We installed a Bell intercooler in our Rotax 914 powered MCR four seater
project.
Gerhard Schruf proved very helpful and provided tailored caculations.
The model is not the same as that shown on Bob's website.
We put emphasis on a clean inlet and outlet for cooling air, and are
achieving 60-70 % efficiency. The airplane has been flying for a year, to
our satisfaction. The performance is about the same as a Europa.
Gottfried has some additional info.

Gilles Thesee
