The weather is predicted to be in the mid 40's, or high er, with VFR for most of the east coast. However, I went to the airport la st night to find off ramp parking just too soft. We have had rain/snow/ice /snow/rain...more snow last night and rain predicted Friday. If I were to not disclose the off ramp parking, I am certain we would approach the magic 100 RV numbers, based on my private emails. However, we would also have a parking problem. I wouldn't want my airplane parking on some of the grass y areas. Much of it is fine, some simply is not acceptable to me. With this in mind, I am postponing the Richmond, Madison i39 Kickoff Flyin. Hold tight and let me find us a good weekend. Door prizes in hand, just waiting on the weather.

Is the radiant heat from the adjacent exhaust pipe in the low pressure area of the cowling sufficient for carb heat or should I be directing some air to the opening in the filtered air box with a heat muff / SCAT tube? Thanks for any input.

I don't remember which drawing it is in but it does come with the firewa ll forward kit, if you have it.

I may be wrong but I believe that you can only use steel AN fittings with SS. 3. $$$$$ 4. I could see doing the brake lines, ie pressure, but why the fuel lines? Have you looked at all of the bends that have to be made? If you have an IO engine = nightmare.
