Like the Economy, slow. We're
using the downtime to finish up wiring, grinding and sanding, speed mods, and a
bunch of other nasty stuff that we had been putting off, so we're making
progress.

We went
aluminum in the stub wings for our Legacy, because there wasn't a run longer
than about 12" and all well secured. In the cockpit, for fuel and
hydraulic, there were longer runs, so we went stainless, mainly for the
fatigue factor, and strength, plus they were
shiny....(:-)
Legacy N178RG
still in progress

Is anybody running
aluminum tubing in the fuel system after the EFI pumps? I am replacing
the small filters with a large canister filter and I don’t have much
room, it appears that it would be easier to route some al tubing than
try and get flex Aeroquip hose in there. I would have two sections of
tubing about a foot long if I used that
system.
Any
opinions? Advice?

ON the firewall, they'd
probably be fine, unless there's a fire. What's your comfort level? I think
you can get Stainless tubing that works with the same
fittings.....
