Paul,

I wouldn't know the answers to those questions. Most 912S's have that shrou
d. I once checked the temperature under the shroud and found it only to be 
about 45C above oat. I was hoping to tap into that for cabin heat, but it w
asn't hot enough, at least not near the front of the engine. Of course the 
under cowling temperatures rise dramatically after engine shutdown.
