Something more secure than a rubber grommet that the manual calls for? Brad, you might consider Aircraft Spruce. They have both metal and fiber/rubber "eyeball" fittings for just this purpose. You didn't say what kind of a Lancair you are building, but if it's a -P, you'll want to consider the pressure loss through this fitting. The aluminum fittings with rubber sealing grommets that Lancair supplies actually work pretty well. There is no load on these when installed with the correct terminal hardware and the rubber makes a pretty good seal... Bob Pastusek
