I'm building a -8 installing IO-360-M1B. The FWF kit will be here today, but the
engine won't arrive for another 3-4 weeks. Can anyone give me a good recommendation
on where to locate the cabin heat box on the firewall? I want to go
ahead and install as much stuff on the firewall as possible before installing
the engine. Don't want to find out later that I put it in the wrong spot!
Maybe the drawings for the FWF kit will give a location?
Thanks in advance,
Doug Ripley

Listers,
I have a quick build RV-8 fuselage. I am working through the builders manual
to identify which items are done and which need to be completed. Has anyone
invented this wheel yet? Can anyone point me to a checklist of items that
remain to be done on the QB fuselage?

As far as I could tell, your limited to right between the rudder peddles.
Baggage compartment on the left and fuel/cables on the right. Of course
with more work you could put it anywhere you want. The easy spot, between
the ruder peddles.

I don't have a clear checklist, but I can tell you that everything
before the part where you run the rudder cables seems to be done, IIRC.
My book is in the shop or I would give you a quick rundown.
It is kind of strange that they don't bother noting what is
already done with the QB. I didn't find it too tricky to
figure out, but it took time. I'd also love to see an index
for the part numbers referenced in the text.
A bit of advice - be careful when you drill the holes to mount the HS!

Mickey,
Thanks for the information. I checked with Van's before contacting the List.
I was told that they had no checklist of work left to complete, either. It
is a bit tedious working through the manual and checking each item off, but
I suppose that it orients the builder to the machine!

Vans said it so the builder will be more familiar with everything if you
have to find out for your self.

Doug,
On my -8 I've got the same engine and put the heat box just off the left
rudder pedal position, and vertically about centered between the oil
reservoir and the fuel line. My thinking is that for starters I'm using
a simple deflector to spread the heat out, and after some time in the
air I can get to it easy enough inside to add defroster and/or directed
heat runs.
