  RV-8.com - Plenum & cowl
Mounting this cowl has been especially challenging compared to the stock Van's cowl because there are really no surfaces to use as a reference in fitting all the others.
Even though the paint on the inside of the cowl showed now signs of damage, the resin and filler in the joint were burned and the shape of the joint was changed just as if it had been treated with a heat gun.
Since my cowl was warped and I had to rebuild it, and since my plenum(s) didn't fit, and since I had to graft on the intake scoop, and since Sam doesn't provide any mounting flanges, I had lots of extra work to do, not to mention the consternation and headscratching required to figure it out.

  What is a Cowl Unit?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
The term "cowl unit" describes a locomotive with a full-width carbody where the body itself is not load-bearing.
On a carbody unit, the underframe is of relatively light construction, and is reinforced by truss-like bracework in the sides of the locomotive.
The body of a cowl unit extends the full width of the frame as on a carbody unit, but it is merely a protective and decorative cover.

 Cowl Unit
A cowl unit is one with full-width enclosing bodywork, similar to the cab unit style of earlier locomotives, but unlike the cab unit style, the bodywork is merely a casing and is not load-bearing.
The cowl unit allows the basic structure of the locomotive to be identical to a freight-oriented hood unit type.
The main disadvantage of the cowl unit is low rear visibility from the cab of the locomotive.

 Larry Pieniazek's Train Specific LEGO® Glossarys Page
Cowl units usually have the cab near the front.
Early cowl units are somewhat "unibody" like in that the body carries some of the structural load, and were sometimes nicknamed "covered wagons".
Later cowl units are built on the same frames as the freight service hood units whose mechanicals they share, and thus no longer use the body for structural strength.

 arthritis pain relief - Cab unit
For this reason, cab units are mostly used in situations where rear visibility is not important, such as power for through freight and passenger trains.
Lately, locomotive manufacturers have switched from cab units to cowl units when a full-width body is desired.
Since all the structural support on a cowl unit is in the frame of the locomotive, rather than the body, manufacturers can easily create full-width locomotives off of hood unit designs if they build cowl units.

 Yamaha Official Seat Cowl for the 2004 Fazer
The unit attaches by three clips, one at the rear, and one at each side; a small rubber strip is provided to prevent the rear clip from scratching the bike’s plastic.
The plastic which the cowl is made from is fair quality, but the plastic tubing which is over the end that butts against the rider is poor and simply pushed on with nothing to hold it there.
As you can see from the pictures, the unit is actually a very poor fit and the cut of the cowl over the seat is such that its profile does not follow that of the bike and instead sits somewhat raised.

The tunnelhull canopy and the outboard’s upper-unit cowl are made out of the same material, but the pieces must be trimmed before you mount them.
The cowl has two trim lines on top; cutting out the forward-most circle allows the top of the motor to pop through and receive plenty of cooling airflow.
To deliver power from the sealed-can motor, a steel flex cable passes through a Teflon tube and is connected to a short prop shaft that is supported by two bronze bushings.
