| Subject: | RV-8 quickbuild fuselage question - drilling forward top skin |
--> RV8-List message posted by: "Stephen J. Soule" <SSoule@pfclaw.com>
Good Morning,
This question is about the RV-8 quick build fuselage. When drilling the
F821PP top skin to the forward left side (just aft of the firewall) into the
longeron and WD-802-L weldment, should the AN426AD4-7 rivets already in the
F820-PP-L skin be drilled out? Should the two AN426AD3-6 keeper rivets be
drilled out? How should the F821PP top skin be attached to the underlying
WD802-L weldment in this area? Should I drill two or three #40 holes for
rivets between the AN426AD4-7 rivets already in place.
Can't find the answer on the plans.

| Subject: | IO snorkle to cowl baffle? |
--> RV8-List message posted by: "Jack Blomgren" <jackanet@hotmail.com>
-8 Builders with IO-360 using Van's VA-132 horizonal induction snorkle,
Installation Instructions with the above snorkle induction system are very
sparce and with illustrations no help to me in mating the snorkle in the
area of Van's cowl baffle part 3 (forward left front side). An example of
some confusion, the top left side of the snorkle is about an inch further
outboard than the forward projecting cowl baffle part 3. Does anyone have
more info, drawings, measurments and/or photos to clarify this area?
Examples of how others solved the marriage of the snorkle (with filter) to
this baffling will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Jack,
Red Wing, MN

RV-8 List,
I am starting to have intermittent operation with my flap motor and sometime
back I remember some posts on a new design or replacement motor and some
temporary fixes for the older motors. Anyone else out there been through
this issue.
Having flap problems after 65 hours,

It is excess grease that has worked its way into the brushes. Disassemble
and degrease, reassemble and it should be just fine. Those brushes are fun
though!

Ah....Good One!!! What type of engine are you using? If you are using
the 200Hp IO360 from Vans, then it should fit according to the
instructions. If, like me, you have the 180Hp Io360 (M1B) from Vans,
then you need to be a little creative. The difference is that the
snorkel is designed for the 1" wider deck on the 200Hp engine. I did a
combination of cutting and reglassing about 3/4" of the outboard top
side of the snorkel and making some changes to the baffle. I added an
aluminum doubler to the bottom of the baffle floor that was wider than
the actual floor. I then added a piece of angle to the outboard side of
the baffle side wall for the outboard baffle to snorkel attach bolts to
go through. Last, I cut out the hole for the snorkel (which ends up
being slightly smaller than the actual orifice) and drilled holes that
go through the baffle floor into nutplates on those angles spelled out
by the instructions. I know a picture is worth a thousand words here
(esp with the incredibly straight forward baffling process). Contact me
off the list, and I'll see what I have.
