The '56-'58 C182/182A came out without cowl flaps. I've done all the searching I can find and cannot find an STC for cowl flaps. Anybody got a clue.
Also, the C120/140 had a "summerization" kit that was nothing more than a bent strip of aluminum that you put on the rear bottom of the cowl to suck more air through the cylinders. Try as I might, I can't find this option for the early 182s.
Yes, they run DAMNED hot in the summertime with any sort of decent climb in a hot region.
