G3i can take the place of Slick Start. Mounted mine right of center on the upper
firewall.

| Subject: | Riveting leading edges to wings |
I'm almost ready to rivet the leading edges to the main wing spar. We
are given the option of using LP4-3's on the outboard two ribs. It
looks like this will be quite a bit easier than using the AN470AD4-5's.
Has anybody used the LP4-3's? If so, are you satisfied with the
results. Are there any drawbacks to using the pulled vs. the driven
rivets.
Also, on Tim's site he mentions that the LP4-3's seemed a bit short. Do
I need to get longer rivets or do the -3's work good?
Thanks in advance,
Bill

I went the LP4-3 route and they turned out fine. I wasn't originally but when
the time came I just felt shooting the solid rivets was an aggravation fest waiting
to happen and chose the easier method. No regrets whatsoever.

LP4-3's for mine. If Van's engineers give me the option and the chances of making
a mistake with an offset rivet set are high, I will go with pop rivets. I keep
several CherryMax rivets of every size from 1-5(univ & csk) for those most
likely places to screw up. I would not want to build the entire plane with LP4-3,
CS4-4, or CherryMax because it would probably weigh 50 lbs more and cost
several thousand more.
