Van's Firewall Forward kit for the RV-9 (constant speed prop) is some $4,300. Whilst Van's kits are usually very good value for money, I was wondering what experiences people had with this kit. Were you happy with the qauality ? Were there things missing or things not needed ? Did you still have to fork out for extras ? Would you buy it again ? PS Most likely I'm going to get an IO-320 from Aerosport which might have some bearing on the cost effectiveness of the FWF kit. __g__ ========================================================== Gerry Filby gerf@gerf.com Tel: 415 203 9177

    --> RV9-List message posted by: <dthomas773@sbcglobal.net> Hi Gerry, I used the firewall forward kit and believed what they told me, which was it is little cheaper than buying the individual parts piece meal. It makes the job a lot easier. The only waste I noticed was in the wiring kit. It is a genric kit to wire any RV. Consequently their was quite a bit of extra cables.

    --> RV9-List message posted by: jc@infonet.com.br Hi Gerry: Ive bought the engine from Aerosport and there is nothing to complain about the deal and the engine. Excellent. Into the FWF kit from VANS you could personalise the itens. For example: if you decide to buy a carb engine you dont need the material for injector one. The best thing to do is to ask VANS a list of material in the FWF and remove or add some itens. JC - Aracaju - Brasil PU-JCI RV-9A QB Flying

    Subject: Van's Firewall Forward Kit ... worth the money ?
    --> RV9-List message posted by: "Roger Ping" <rpping@qwest.net> Definitely 80% of the wiring part of the kit was useless. Most of the wires were for other models and unless you are going to install Vans prepunched panel most of the smaller wires are useless also. I just cut them up and used them as I could. Although, what do you do when you have to crimp a 003 wire? -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv9-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv9-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Gerry Filby Subject: RV9-List: Van's Firewall Forward Kit ... worth the money ? --> RV9-List message posted by: Gerry Filby <gerf@gerf.com> More shopping decisions ...
