Scat tube cooling

Finalizing the engine installation after an overhaul by Aerosport. Planning on running some small 1” scat tube off the rear baffles for the Slick mag and the fuel pump. Any other areas to run cooling tubes or is that all I need?

I really don't know how much good those cooling scat hoses do for a slick mag or fuel pump. they would only flow during flight and for that regime are probably not needed. the highest accessory temps occur after shutdown during the heat soak back. I'm thinking about removing my slick cooling tubes.

Any need for alternator cooling?

I have one there also, probably don't need it. B&C alternator.
