Engine came with fuel lines made up and looking to possibly cut existing line to make red cube fit. Attached photos show cube strapped to where I'm thinking of placing it. Questions I have: 1). Is this the best location considering the system and lines that I have? 2). Is it enough to support red cube by adel clamps above and below cube and let those clamps be sole support? 3). Where can I send this fuel line to get new fittings attached? https://www.dropbox.com/sc/ugtbx1d3mvj0n4y/AABmGFpc4V3IZbsI98cvO1IOa -------- Dave Ford RV6 flying RV10 building Cadillac, MI Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=431881#431881 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 05:44:46 PM PST US From: Jesse Saint Subject: Re: RV10-List: Advice on red cube install I'll reply inline.

I would recommend a bracket bolted where you are proposing putting the Adel clamp. > > 3). Where can I send this fuel line to get new fittings attached? You can't. Those lines are made and then the fire sleeve is molded on, I'm pretty sure. Aircraft Spruce has a custom hose order form where you can specify length, ends, sizes, etc. I would replace the single line with 2 new lines for that location. > > https://www.dropbox.com/sc/ugtbx1d3mvj0n4y/AABmGFpc4V3IZbsI98cvO1IOa > > -------- > Dave Ford > RV6 flying > RV10 building > Cadillac, MI > > > > > Read this topic online here: > > http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=431881#431881 > > > > > > > > > > ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 07:24:21 PM PST US Subject: Re: RV10-List: Advice on red cube install From: Bob Leffler I would call Tom at TSFlightlines a call to see what options you may have regarding modifying your fuel lines, If not possible, he's a great source to get new lines constructed.
