Yikes! Started the engine on N811WT yesterday (with a lot of assistance
from Roy Russell).
Left mag works good, Lightspeed Ignition may not be timed right, but it does
run on on it. The engine instruments all seem to work, the alternator
works, no obvious leaks.
Hope to be flying in a few weeks.

Thanks; I'll head down when I get the chance. I'm actually more
concerned with the $50 cost for the kit. I need to look a what the
individual components cost.

Wanted to ask for a friend in Belgium that is building an 8 if Doug Bell/Sr
. are still in the fork business. I know it has been some time since I've s
een discussions on this topic=2C 2 yrs. I think. The RV8 I believe will ope
rate off a grass field but I think he's looking for clearence as the rest o
f us have.
Any leads or info would be great so I could forward this to him. If the Bel
l's are out of the business is there any others doing aftermarkets right no
w?
TIA=2C
