| Subject: | RV-8 QB Exhaust Ramp Riveting... |
Dear Listers,
I just noticed that the exhaust ramp only has a couple of temporary rivets installed
from the QB process. I can't for the life of me figure out why they didn't
rivet this already?? I hesitate to rivet it if there is something I'm suppose
to do before it gets riveted on...? The aft side isn't riveted yet either
and it looks like the only way this is going to be rivetable is with pop rivets.
Is that true?
Here are a couple of pictures of what I'm talking about.

| Subject: | IO-390 Governor Oil Line...? |
Van's includes a document called "Service Instruction No. 1435" describing a long,
aluminimum tube that connects from the front of the engine to the rear where
the prop governor is attached (see attached photo).
Since the prop governor on the IO-390 is mounted up front, is there even such a
tube for this application? If so, what's the part number and where's a good
place to get one?
Thanks!

What should I set the gap the spark plug for on the IO-390?
What torque value should be used when screwing in the spark plugs?

Is there a gasket to seal the CS prop to the crankshaft? Looks like there is a
taper fitting between the prop and the crankshaft. What are the torque values
for the prop bolts? I have a 72" Hartzell prop I got new from Van's, but I
don't find the installation instructions in my pile of stuff. Anybody have any?
Thanks!
