Oi Fabricio,
Most builders are using weather strip commonly found at the local home center or
hardware store. There are a variety of sizes, and shapes that will fill the
gap between the door, and door opening. Attached is the weather strip used on
my KIS TR-1. It has been in place for more than 20 years and seems to be holding
up.
You also asked about a cad drawing by Vance you can find it here at the remains
of Vances website that somehow still exists in the cyber world. There is a lot
of information here but some pages, and photos are missing.
http://www.oocities.org/vjaqua
ALL KIS OWNERS - note in newsletter #20. I am finding that not all builders made
this important modification:
TWO PLACE AND FOUR PLACE DOOR OPENING REINFORCEMENTS.
To add stiffness and strength around the lower corner of the door openings, an
added reinforcing lamination of glass plies is recommended. While this is not
a flight safety item, these added plies will reduce cabin shake during engine
start and idle. This will also add significant stiffening in case you have a similar
hapless incident like the pre Christmas excursion of the prototype Cruiser,
which ended up on it's roof after an engine failure and forced landing in
a muddy field. To maximize the effectiveness of this lay-up, bridge the gap between
the end of the top stiffener "hat" section, and the lower fuselage longitudinal
"rail" with scrap foam and dry MICRO. Use a generous (thumb size) fillet
on any inside angle intersections . Make up a four ply BID prelam about 5
inches wide and about 8 inches tall , and apply to each of these 4 locations.

Thanks,

Also comes in black which I am using. I stuck the weather seal on the door
and not the opening so it would be out of the way when entering and leaving
the cockpit.
To seal the bottom edge of the doors you will need a larger type
weatherstrip.

I just did a flox/micro release between the bottom of the door and the fusel
age. No detectable air leakage and no water leakage even in a downpour.
