With due respect,  I do not think  an average AP such as myself is competent to a prebuy on a homebuilt plane, especially one as sophisicated as a Lancair.

A friend's 360 was destroyed in a force landing due to fuel exhaustion because the original builder used a light cotter pin instead  a clevis bolt in the fuel selctor shaft.
The cotter pin sheared and the pilot was unable to switch tanks.

Much has been written about the hydraulic landing gear cylinders,  etc.

I think one be best to find an experienced builder to inspect the aircraft.
