Hi Guys=0D
=0D
Horizontal Stabilizer RV9A=0D
I don't know if any one else has came across this in the manual for the RV9a
in section 6 /6-2 in paragraph 8 on this page it says to match drill the
skins to the skeletal structure, enlarging the prepunched 3/32 inch holes
to #40, this I think is a mistake as the rivets supplied for this are exact
for the 3/32 hole if they are drilled out to #40 the rivets will fall
straight through the holes, either I'm missing something or someone at Van's
have goofed.=0D
=0D
The rivets supplied are: AN426AD3-4.=0D
=0D
As I have not drilled these holes as yet and don't intend to until this is
clarified.=0D
=0D
Any comment or help in this regard will be most appreciated.=0D
=0D
Thanks Guys=0D

Warren,
As another builder from Australia, trust me on this one. It is correct
to drill out the holes to #40. You will have difficulty putting a rivet in
this hole. The rivets expand significantly when you drive them. #40 drill
is 0.098 inches , or 2.45 Ml (to put it into real measurements ;0), or 5/32
of an inch. Check that you really have a # 40 drill bit. I suggest you get
some of the scrap aluminium sheets that Vans ship with the kit, and drill a
3/32 hole. Try putting the rivet in. Then drill it out to #40 and repeat
the exercise. If you still have difficulty, email me off line .

Great news You are not alone. As I began building my RV7A which is similar
to the RV9 I went through the same doubts as you. Just remember all the holes
Van has drilled are one size too small
by one size. Example the #40 hole you are to drill is actually a #41.
Another reminder for me is the larger the number on the drill bit the small the
hole diameter. And further, the spring depth stops I used reminded me of which
size to use. The gold one is #30 or 1/8 inch and the silver is #40 or 3/32.
Also the clecos are the same color. All of this becomes intuitive very
quickly. But as always use the resources you have. There is not a dumb question,
only dumb answers.

Hi Warren,
The advice you are getting is absolutly right. #40 drill for the little
rivets, #30 for the big ones. All the rivets you will need to drive in the kit
are one or the other of these sizes. And yes, if you place a 3/32 rivet in the
hole drilled with a number 40 bit it will seem loose,but will expand to a nice
tight fit when driven.
Good luck and good fun with your project.

I used the ACS2002. I ran a hose to the firewall and
mounted the manifold pressure transducer using
standard fittings.

James - could the transducer fitted onto the engine itself? Thanks, Steve.
