Posted: Thu Sep 10, 2009 8:43 am Post subject: Info and Question on Van's FWF Kit (including hoses) |
|
|
I have been reading the posts about engines hoses and wondering about what to get and what to leave out in Van's FWF kit. Another RV-10 builder recently got the kit and I noticed that the hoses looked like teflon coated stainless steel braid. I emailed Van's to find out and this is what they sent me. Included is the current inventory of the kit.
start of Van's note:
1) The Fuel and Oil lines in the RV-10 Firewall Forward kits
are teflon coated with stainless steel braid.
(2) The Vibration mount we sell are made in the USA by
"Vibration Isolation Products".
(3) I have the list of the RV-10 Firewall Forward kit below for
you.
Best Regards

end of Van's note
First of all it is good to see that they have switched to teflon/SS hoses for the fuel and oil lines.
I am not familiar with the "Vibration Isolation Products" engine mount. Is anyone? It is a division of Pacific Molded Technologies in California. Do you recommend that I stick with Lord Mounts?
So far it looks like I will stick with Van's hoses and just about everything else but will drop a couple items. I have another source for a Plane Power alternator so I will drop it. (They are good alternators and I recommend that you use them.) I bought an AirFlow oil cooler from Alex and will drop it from the kit. I still need to make up my mind on the engine mounts and throttle quadrant.
Any other thoughts?
