I almost asked this very same question the day before billy did, so I was quite interested in Dana's answer that Van's had them for sale. I ordered one, and got it today. It's not exactly a perfect fit for my cowling, nor the Revmaster, but it MIGHT be better for the old standard KR cowling, it's hard to say. And it's positive proof that RV guys don't know diddly about getting fiberglass smooth (so it matches the rest my cowling nicely), but it'll certainly get the job done! I'm at the point now that I don't really care what it looks like, as long as it'll get me in the air sooner rather than later. All I have to do is cut off the flange, recontour it to fit my cowling, glass it on with two layers of 2" wide fiberglass tape, and put a big fillet of micro on the joint and call it DONE! There's a photo of their "FAB4 SCOOP 0320" at http://home.hiwaay.net/~langford/RVscoop.jpg , just laid in place. My carburetor is almost mounted so I may be installing the "scope" shortly. I saw Ed Janssen and Video Bob at the SAA flyin this weekend. Also saw Paul, Tom, and Phil Boyer, among others. And I saw some pretty outstanding homebuilts too. William Wynne did another excellent Corair forum, and there were two immaculate Vair powered Piets that flew in. Funny thing is that I only remember seeing about three planes on the field that weren't taildraggers...

The timing is set at 10 deg. advance by a timing light. The carb was adjusted close. The fuel pressure regulator had to be turned up to 3 lbs. I discovered that the engine monitor was doubling the RPM's. That I just have to change the resistors. I had installed the ones they thought should work. The question comes in where I checked the dwell in the dristributor and it was reading about 20 deg. The shop manual says that it should be 31 to 34 deg. I have WW's daul points plate installed. How do I adjust the dwell? I didn't find any information in the shop manual. Sorry about the double post. I must have hit the wrong key some how.

Dwell is an electronic measure of point gap. To increase the dwell, decrease the gap. Also make sure that your dwell/tach is set to "6 cylinder", rather than 4 or 8. And to be absolutely sure about timing advance, you need to either use a degreed pulley with a regular timing light or use an "advancing" timing light that you can set to 34 degrees. Rev the engine up until all the advance is supposed to be in (wide open, to be absolutely sure) and set it to TDC. I think WW says set it to 34 degrees if running 100LL.

I heard a slight cracking sound and I believe the foam under the glass cracked a bit. The area is now a bit "soft." Not much, but different than the rest. What to do? I have heard that using a hair dryer on the glass will sort of soften and re-bind it. My thought is to do this first followed by adding a second layer of KR cloth from basically the rear spar back. Thoughts and comments would be welcomed. Tim __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo!

The biggest debate was that the LED was directional and did not provide adequate light at an angle. Now available is the wide angle LED 1157 type bulb. Each bulb has twelve LED's which are all angled differently to give that wide field of view. I have not tried one of these yet as I already have the standard LED 1157 bulb. These might be worth taking a look at.
