You will meet lots of others who have experience in building experimental planes and the RV8 is one of the most popular. Larry in Indiana, EAA chapter 21, past president.

I need to run conduit in my QB wings but there are no consistent tooling holes anywhere except where Vans put the pitot holes and the one tooling hole above that. (actually below if the wing is right side up). It would be pretty easy to put a 3/4 hole in place of the pitot holes and in the tooling holes above with a 3/4 step drill and a 4 foot extension but it would get pretty close to the spar. Is there an edge distance issue with this or does it even apply? Doing it anywhere else without the tooling holes is problematic? Any comments, suggestions, pictures appreciated.

This will give me the ability to run antenna wires, lights, etc. with minimal to no EMI. Here is a link to Van=92s recommended location http://www.vansaircraft.com/pdf/Wing_Wiring.pdf if you haven=92t already viewed it.
