Project: BuckRV-8     -     Entry

Oct 27, 2022 2.1 Air filter holder; Baffling Category: Firewall Forward
1. Finished cutting out and smoothing the edges of the air filter hole in the left inlet baffle.
2. Progressively trimmed the snorkel to a better shape, and with better clearance, where it meets the left baffle floor.
3. Test-fit the filter holder pieces and the filter to the snorkel, just to get an idea of how much room I have to work with as I go forward. (BTW: The Vans instructions and drawings for the Horizontal Induction snorkel/filter are perhaps the worst of any of their sub-kits. If you're installing an IO-360 engine with a Bendix-type fuel servo, be prepared to improvise and do a lot of "fiddling" with the provided parts.)
