Plastic that looks like expanded metal would be very good for your project, although I'm not sure where to find it.

I can buy a number of vented fenders. Here's an Acerbis vented fender. Here's a Polisport vented fender. However, I really want to cut air holes in the stock fender. If I screw up, I can always buy another fender. Also, this afternoon I just got the front fender shimmed properly to clear the oil cooler, so I don't want to repeat this process all over again with another fender. Spud

pete, that's really cool! Where did you find a heat exchanger like that?

Thank you, Pete. I am using the same plumbing method as you. The oil pump will feed oil into the bottom line of my oil cooler. After the oil exits the top of my oil cooler, it will flow into the oil reservoir in the frame. I plan to install a digital temperature gauge in the oil line before it feeds into the oil cooler, so I can monitor the oil temperature directly after the oil exits the engine.

You've got skills! Did you make that on a milling machine? I can see the fitting that joins the two reservoirs; does fluid fill one cylinder and then dump into the other?

I found some plastic, 1/8" mesh at the following website.
http://www.countryporch.com/darice/view.asp?item=33400 What size mesh do you guys think I should get? Perhaps 1/4" mesh is less likely to clog with mud? Spud
