I already have stuff on the left top of the firewall. The center top of the firewall might interfere with accessing the oil filter. Thus, the right top is seemingly the best choice for me. > > Just curious what others have done.

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 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 11:42:43 AM PST US Subject: RV10-List: Re: Riveting leading edges to wings From: "tsts4" 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. -------- Todd Stovall 728TT (reserved) RV-10 Empacone, Wings, Fuse Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=325471#325471 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 07:00:51 PM PST US Subject: RV10-List: Re: Riveting leading edges to wings From: "rv10flyer" 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. -------- Wayne Gillispie, A&P 5/93, PPC 10/08 Bldr# 40983 SB Fuselage 9/21/10- Sec 35 Access covers and floor panels.
