- For additional info on the firewall in general, see also section QB_Fuselage
- Plan your control cables pass-throughs at step 3
- Some people have used an "eyeball" type here that may require different spacing than the pre-punched holes provided in the kit.
Many use these for the control cable penetrations (at Spruce: EYEBALL FIREWALL FITTING- SS PRESSURE PLATE - STEEL TTP):
More products are here: https://www.firewallfittings.com/product/ttp-s/
You may need to order custom diameter pass-throughs here, for example, the California "176-VTT"-type Push Pull cables have an OD of .34, so a custom OD of .345 may be appropriate. You can also order double hole ones here
. - Look ahead in the plans to see if you want to do the double plastic bushing. The RV-14 kit uses an FF-00001 to penetrate the firewall:
- Many people have used the following pass-thru with the RV-10 (at Spruce: Avery SS Firewall Pass-Thru):
- If you plan to install electronic injection (SDS or EFII) or a fuel purge valve, mirror the 9/16 hole over to the left side as you will need two.
Step 4
- Several builders are reporting that part WD-1002-L-PC / WD-1002-R-PC is being labelled incorrectly. If you ended up with two of the same kind, Vans will be happy to swap them out.
Step 7
- Note when riveting F-1001M Left Side Angle, you need to leave the 2 holes that intersect the Oil Cooler Box Attach Holes open so that they can be used to attach the oil cooler in Section FF1-2
