I've been well aware of the jd accident particulars since the ntsb report came out as I've always been a very avid Rutan design fan... the guys a narcissistic hedonist but his designs are sound, even if the go juice flows between the thighs.... Anyway I'd always thought a slightly overpowered vari single seater would be ideal for me. But too many projects for this go around.

Too many project?!?!? How can anyone have to many project..[emoji2957]
I seriously need to uncomplicate my life and loose a bunch of pending projects, lol.
Thanks for the pointers on the valve. That is exactly the one I have to replace the original per plans valve. Guess the Allen fuel valve will be shelved.
Thanks again
Will be installing this in the near future. Just need to re-work the fuel lines to closer match the plans.
