|
I received my FWF kit this week and I thought I'd share some things worth noting.
First, Van's has no engine mounts in stock and apparently can't get them from their vendor. The ones that have been supplied in the kit are made by Vibration Isolation Products out of California. Van's has a note on their website that says they are looking for other sources. In the interim you can cancel them out of your kit (or backorder) and obtain elsewhere or wait for Van's to resolve. I have opted to cancel my backorder and obtain them from Aircraft Spruce. The equivalent part numbers are as follows:
Lord: J 3804-20
Barry Controls: 94110-01
Second, I have attached photos of the hoses that I received. These look to be of good quality. All are stainless steel braid and the fuel lines are fire sleeved. Van's says that they are teflon coated, meaning lined. I can not verify this but I have no reason to doubt it. In the picture the hoses are (top to bottom)
VA-189 and 138 Fuel lines
VA-190 and 135 Oil lines
VA-133 and 102 Oil and Fuel Pressure
Finally, there is no air/oil separator so you will have to order that if you want one.
