Ok, sounds like a good idea to enlarge the holes to make more space around the
CF panel to glare shield . I have the instructions for the panel but am not quite
understanding how the depth or forward edges of panel support frame should
fit to CF panel. Should frame sit "into" or "behind" CF panel? The drawing
shows taking material off of support frame at the outboard edges. If it sits into
the panel, the CF sits an eighth to three sixteenths proud of the frame.

Anyone know a source for the stainless hinge pins besides Vans? I don't
understand why they don't provide enough for the side hinges between the
top and bottom cowl. Page 47-8 says they are available from the
accessories catalog. I'd think they are more than just accessories. I
understand that they weld on a retainer for these "accessories", but one
would think that it would be supplied in the kit.

The support panel screws up tight to the back of the CF panel. The support
panel has to sit about 1/8" low to allow room for the CF inside the upper
cowl deck. I can get you some photos tomorrow when I go to hangar.

Sean,
I purchased hinge pin material from ACS - this may be the right number but
you need to check: MS20253-P2-7200 HINGE PIN SS 03-49000. I see no
advantage to stainless steel over the standard steel pins.
I got (2) 6' lengths as I install the cowl side pins from inside the
cockpit. The pins run through a piece of 1/4" aluminum tubing on the cabin
side of the firewall that acts as a conduit. I took a 3/16" round head
rivet and drilled a 1/16" hole through the center, then countersunk the
shank end, cut off the head, and JB welded the rivet into one end of the
1/4" tubing (countersunk part to the inside so the pin is directed into the
1/16" hole). A 3/16" hole is drilled into the firewall such that the rivet
shank pokes through 1/4" or so, in a spot such that the pin is directed into
the first eyelet on the cowl.
This is really a lot simpler than it sounds. The end result is with a few
AN fittings you have lockable side pins that don't poke through the front of
the cowl.
Carl

Thanks Carl.
I assumed it was "required" to replace them with the part mentioned in
the plans, but I am now seeing that is not the case.
I shamelessly stole the pin retainer from Mike
(http://www.azcloudflyer.com/finish/IMG_0298.jpg). And it seems the
pins that come with the hinges will be fine.

Quick, simple question. The instructions state that the outboard bottom
wing skin overlaps the inboard bottom skin but doesn't mention how the
stiffeners overlap. Do I assume it's the same as the skins (which is
what I've done up to this point) or does it really matter???
Thanks in advance,
Bill
