I've read numerous posts regarding different options when installing the engine.
Does anyone know of a list of recommendations for items to delete from the Van's
FWF kit. I'm installing the IO-540 from Lycoming with 1 slick and 1 pmag.

Its been awhile but IIRC I deleted most of the hoses (which I replaced with ones
from Tom at TS Flightlnes), the alternator, and the oil cooler mount/bracket
(which I had bought earlier so I could install it during firewall construction).

Unless I just have an anomaly, I may have discovered the mysterious reason that
"slight modification" must be done to use the 14 designated Y/D bracket kit on
a -10.
The Y/D bracket is supposed to sandwich in-between the pitch servo bracket and
the flange of the bulkhead which are already mated up. The two aft holes, however,
are about 1/16 of an inch wider on the Y/D bracket forcing you to elongate
the hole inward to match up.
Considering the absolute deadnuts accuracy there has been in everything else, I
have to imagine that they know this. It is too far off to fit but close enough
for the screw to barely catch a thread or two. A simple note in the instructions
could save some tailcone imbedded frustration and perhaps, a stripped nutplate
that would be a bugger to replace.

I'd delete the Pmag and move on to something that's actually available. :)
It was ready to ship within the next two weeks at least 7 years ago.
If you are going with the stock Lycoming, Van's cowling, Hartzell prop then the
fwf kit is adequate. I upgraded all the hoses to integral firesleeve from Stratoflex.
If I were to do it again I'd get the fuel hoses with the red external
firesleeve on it. It may keep the fuel inside the hose a bit cooler.
Also, delete the hose that's connecting the fuel injection servo and the spider
and get two shorter ones to connect the fuel flow sender in between there.
