Lee the temptation looks way cool.  Are the cheek cowles functional to
provide cool air to the bearing area and to exhaust hot air from the engine
compartment??  Hope to see it flying at BARKS

	I've used the ARI with YS nose ring, as is, on a couple of Webra
	installations, but it's been a while.  I think I might have flipped
the nose
	ring over, moving it a little further forward to a narrower part of
the
	taper.

	I'll check on this and get back.
