Bill,
On my pre-punched RV-8a the plans call for a 45 degree bulkhead fitting in
the hole in the landing gear weldment. The fitting goes in from the bottom
with the nut up at the weldment. Orient the 45 degree fitting so that it
aims down the gear leg.
Cheers,
Guy

Subject: RV8-List: Re: RV8-List Fuel Vent lines
Rv-8 fellows, I'm working on my plumbing, fuel and brake. The plans shows
the end of the vent tubing out the floor and bent forward. Is there a
particular important reason why the drip end is pointed forward as opposed
to to the rear ? I think I saw a couple RVs at Sun n Fun with the tubes
rearward. Second question: The plans shows the brake lines going to the
landing gear weldment and exit down at the leg. What have you all done in
the past ? Make a separate hole in the floor near the weldment that you can
snap in a plastic sleeve for friction protection or enlarge the gear hole
and run it out against the steel leg ? Thanks ahead of time and best
regards, Bill of Georgia
