Hi Philip,
Thank you, your explanation really answers all of my questions I had about
the installation of the foam block.
Regards,
Ron

Hi Ron,
I checked and don't have any photos of my foam block exercise. However if
you google RV-10 Filtered Air Box, you will find a number of hits.
The foam block is shaped somewhat like a brick and is oriented so you're
tunneling through the fat side of the brick; if you can visualize that.
You just have to shape the outside corners enough to wedge it into the nose
of snorkel. I used epoxy to hold it into position, but wish I had used
something more forgiving. I have a couple of clumps of epoxy way down there
that I'll probably never remove. Using an adhesive would make it cleaner
and just as easy.
I plugged the intake of the induction system with a rag to avoid the foam
shavings from finding its way downstream.
I also used a vacuum to suck out foam shavings as I was digging.
Glassing it was easy. I removed some of the gel coat so I could get a good
bond, then pre-loaded my fabric with epoxy and stuck it in position.
I didn't need a balloon to hold it like some of the photos show. I just
checked in on it every 30 minutes or so to make sure it wasn't slumping and
to adjust it if needed.
It looked really good at the end of everything. The worst part was getting
the foam block shaped enough to get it fit the cowling and then digging it
back out. (Though the adhesive would make that much easier.)
