I have just emailed Aerofairings and hope to be able to order immediately.

Am I correct in interpreting the information in this thread as meaning that the air intake frame wasn't part of the original 150 aircraft design prior to the L model?

Roy, YES. My plane for example, 1970K...has metal nose. No prop spacer. Thus..the airbox fits flush.

So I got the replacement from the folks in Canada, I put longer metal baffles and longer pieces of baffle material and my CHTs dropped 15 to 25 degrees.

TO ME THAT IS A LARGE DROP IN CHTS! !

I cannot comment on the lower CHT temps as I’m not lucky enough to have a gauge but I can say that since I fitted one of these shrouds my carb icing issues seem to have gone away.....6 months and 35hours without a problem. I’m on Vancouver Island in the middle of a wet temporate rain forest with the possibility of high humidity year round. It’s not much fun when the engine coughs at 7000’ over Comox glacier.!

So far, well worth the money....
