Now that my rebuilt cylinder will be installed on my C-85 tomorrow, I have purchased baffle seal material to make sure I get better air flow across the jugs. This material is about 3" wide. I will pop rivet the material to the baffles, but I'm debating the best method for attaching it. Should it be installed flat so it bends up against the inside of the cowl? Could it be doubled over the installed on the baffle to make it shorter the stiffer? Or is flat (but bent in the way it should lay against the cowl) better?
Another question, how close together should the rivets be? I don't want to get carried away drilling holes in the baffles, but it needs to hold. I'm thinking that if the baffle seals are INSIDE the top air chamber air pressure should hold them flat against the baffle and cowl, is that right? Any help is appreciated! Larry N99340
