I use black duct tape in the winter on my own Pacer to block off the oil cooler fins. Back when these planes were new in the 50's, they came with a snap on cover for winter ops, but many guys with Pacers and Tri Pacers just use duct tape. I would not do it to a customer's plane, but I would advise them to find a cover (wink wink) to keep the oil temps from being too low during cold weather flight.
