    Subject: Aux Fuel Tank(s)
    clamav-milter version 0.80j on andromeda --> RV10-List message posted by: "Jesse Saint" <jesse@itecusa.org> This is my first post, but I have gleaned a fair bit of useful information from the other posts since I joined a couple of weeks ago. My question is regarding Auxiliary Fuel Tanks for the RV-10. We would like to add 20 gallons of fuel capacity. We have talked about a flat welded tank the size of the baggage compartment floor, a welded tank to fit the angled space behind the back seat but in front of the baggage door, and wing tip tanks. Are any of you working on something or aware of something like this that somebody else has done. I understand that tip tanks are available from Australia for the 2-seat RV's, but not yet for the RV-10. Any help would be very beneficial. GOD BLESS!

    --> RV10-List message posted by: Michael Schipper <mike@learningplanet.com> Matthew Brandes has made extended range tanks for his -9A. I know it's not a -10, but you might get some ideas from his work. You can check out his website for details. http://www.n523rv.com Regards, Mike Schipper -9A #90768 - Finishing Kit www.my9a.com On Feb 9, 2005, at 9:58 AM, Jesse Saint wrote: --> RV10-List message posted by: "Jesse Saint" <jesse@itecusa.org> This is my first post, but I have gleaned a fair bit of useful information from the other posts since I joined a couple of weeks ago.

    Subject: Engine questions
    --> RV10-List message posted by: "JOHN STARN" <jhstarn@verizon.net> Some time ago I found a Lyc engine manual (2002 verison) on line and gleaned this info. We have the IO-540 J4A5 in HRII N561FS and had to change to Slick mags because of firewall interference. Very tight fit for spin-on oil filter but is serviceable. We are not turbo. Injection is Bendix and rebuilt to -11 mod. Engine complete as/was, it came from a ground looped Skybolt. Rebuilt with 6 new jugs. For information only, your mileage may vary. KABONG (GBA & GWB) 8*) IO-540 J4A5 Shown as installed only in Piper Aircraft, Aztec PA-23 "250" IO-540 J4A5 250HP @2575 rpm 8.50 comp.

IO-540 C4B5 250HP @2575 rpm 8.50 comp. Same as IO-540 C1B5 but with more effective counterweights for use with Hartzell "compact" propeller. IO-540 C1B5 250HP @2575 rpm 8.50 comp. Same as O-540 A1D5 but with Bendix fuel injection. O-540 A1D5 250HP @2575 rpm 8.50 comp. Same as O-540 A1B5 except for retard breaker mags. O-540 A1B5 250HP @2575 rpm 8.50 comp.

    Subject: Aux Fuel Tank(s)
    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Noel & Yoshie Simmons" <noel@blueskyaviation.net> 20 gallons about 3feet by 3 feet by 4" that is a big tank, and somewhere near 125 pounds + the tank? How much baggage weight are we allowed?
