Cooling blast tubes, Air intake

Cooling blast tubes

I used lock wire through the center of the blast tubes to hold them in position. I’ve added blast tubes for both PMAGs, the EarthX battery, and the alternator.

Air intake

The air intake is removable and attached with machine screws. However I’m trying to stop any air from outside from entering into the lower cowl area, so I decided to seal between the intake and the cowl using RTV. I also applied grease to the cowling surface to prevent the RTV from adhering to it so it should only stick to the air intake fibreglass surface, similar to a gasket.
