Go to a salvage yard such as "You Pull It" and see it you can find one out of an SUV. My wife's Infinity QX4 has a nice one, you can't have it. Another one is a tail gate net for a pick up. I have one I bought at Wal-Mart to replace the tail gate when I had a fifth wheel camper. The tail gate net is really some tuff stuff and would be easy to modify.

Yes, on mine it is. I selected an electric pump that puts out less psi than the ED pump 2.- Do you have a gasoline pressure dial-(could be an EIS) installed in t he carb side if the fuel system?. In case the pressure is too high (danger of push the floats down). Yes 3.- Did you installed a gas pressure regulator (another gadget that can pot entialy fail)betwen the mech pump and the carburators? No need on mine 4.- Do you know (where to look for) the max pressure that the carb floats c an stop without danger of flooding? My ED fuel pump puts out about 5 psi. My electric aux pump puts out about 3 psi. The 2 together put out the higher of the 2, or 5 psi. 5.- Did you installed a "crash switch" in case of a take off or landing inc ident/accident the electric pump will turn instantly off?- If not will have lots of prssurized gas, flowing in case of fire... The battery master switch. It was already in the plane - Geee, is getting more complicate and dangerous than safe, in my humble opin ion... GA planes(and usually homebulits as in the RV line) that I am familiar with that won't gravity feed always have an engine driven fuel pump and a backup electric pump. This is no big deal, IMO, but if I didn't like it I wouldn't install it. Also if you aren't running a 912s and/or don't plan on doing the very steep climbouts that it is capable of you probably don't need it. Your call of course - Dont have to answer to the list,,,- Just be sure you have the answers. - This is not to bother anyone, just my best way to clear doubts in this-hi gh-redundant instalation. normally redundant in a non gravity feed system - Saludos Gary Gower Not negative thinking. Just hoping all answers are OK (Safe) in all particu lar cases. ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 10:15:04 AM PST US From: Zed Smith Subject: Zenith701801-List: More "Nets" do not archive Another possible source for netting, and other items not easily sewed on the typical home Singer, (especially by the typical rivet puller) is your local "trucker's supply". In most areas dump trucks, rock haulers, gravel haulers, etc, are required to put netting over their loads. Usually some guy has a big industrial sewing machine and a selection of netting, some very long work tables (leveled) and giant sissors. These firms make nets-to-order. Also, consider awning merchants. They cut & sew canvas, belting material, etc, and likely have the expertise to custom-fit your idea. Be cautious about mentioning the word "airplane" as the price usually goes up. Regards.
