Can someone email me a link that has details on how you install a 540 onto a
RV8?
Anyone know how much additional weight these installations are averaging?
Also, how do you know for sure which acro weight limit is the one for your
plane?

I had to widen my roll-over bar less than an inch (using an engine
hoist) to get a good fit. Something's wrong if you have an eight inch
discrepancy.....

I have an infinity stick grip with the starter button on the top right.
I have been told that a zener diode wired properly will prevent the
starter from engaging if the prop is already turning (if the ALT is
producing power).
Does anyone know how to wire these things in?

I'm using a second 'starter enable' switch on the console instead. Not
flying yet.
Is there an advantage to using the diode over the switch?

Listers,
I measured my 8 QB today. S/N 81735, and got essentially the same
measurements. If you place the roll bar on the fuselage I have about 1/4"
slack. Rollbar needs to be opened up. Have you tried placing rollbar on
fuselage?
