The Cub had a 3/4" spar, so that is probably a safe bet to go with. -- Dan Yocum yocum137@gmail.com "I fly because it releases my mind from the tyranny of petty things."

I have been having a big problem getting my 2 sets of points balanced to fire at the same degree advance on mine. I sent it back to him and have one of the new style distributors coming next week. but i am still running this Grand Rapids EIS in the panel that DJ installed. initially it was giving fairly decent readings on the one coil it is connected to but the last time or two I flew it after messing with the gaps to get the timing closer it was way off. I plan on connecting the electronic pickup to the EIS and maybe an electronic tach after getting it in. leaving the other point side clean with nothing else on it but the coil,condenser and ballast resistor.I'm just wondering if anybody else had any problems installing this style ignition pickup and any solutions if you did.

Was going to fly to Brodhead anyway. Was hoping to see a thread like this pop up.

One of the best articles about rib building is by Tony Bingelis in the "Sportplane Builder" column in the February, 1994 issue of Sport Aviation. It contains the illustration about possible ways to cut the rib pieces. It contains a lot of info about rib building which is not in his main books. I found it the most useful source when I was building my ribs. The old SA articles are available to all EAA members at the Oshkosh 365 website.
