I used the Hysol as well. I did all of the windows, as well as the
windscreen and used probably about 3/4 of the quart kit. I'll echo
Rob's comments, it's nice and thick and the pot life was enough to do 2
windows at a time with no rush.

Rob, how much Hysol did you end up using? Did you use it on the
windscreen also?

1. Hartzell Prop
The three blade composite prop for the IO-540 should be shipping from
Hartzell this week. The current plan is for me to fly to Oshkosh (yes,
this year) with the three blade prop on the RV-10. The test data that
I have seen shows that the plane should accelerate and climb better
with the prop and should only be a couple of kts slower in cruise.
Dan Benua's local RV-10 has the same engine and ignition as mine so we
should be able to compare the performance of the two props, although
my RV-10 will be heavier.
2. Window Installation
I installed the windows in this weekend using Hysol from Lancair
http://www.aerocraftparts.com/ItemForm.aspx?item=9360-QT
This stuff works awesome and in my opinion is the only way to install
the windows. It is thick so it does not run all over, has a pot
life of 1 hour, and when you get it on the windows it wipes off using
Colman lantern fluid. It also does not eat into the window causing
the cracking where the clamps were. I drilled #40 holes around the
edge of the window (not through the window) and then used wing nut
cleco's to hold the window in while the Hysol cured.
3. Fuel pump to servo hose.
The standard fuel line routing from Van's shows the 90 deg fitting on
the fuel pump and the straight on the servo, this causes the fuel line
to get closer than I like to the exhaust. I found that if you
reverse the line and put the 90 on the fuel servo you have tons of
clearance with the exhaust.
