++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Dan, As you consider when and if to install that Corvair, plan also on adding fuel capacity. I have 12 .5 in each outer wing panel, no header, with the 0-200 and that seems comfortable. Depending on the wind, I can go out 200 miles and back without worrying about fuel. I flight plan for 3 hours with reserve. Of course I can't set that long, or haven't, and most cross country legs go 2 hours. The one long distance trip I made to Ohio was 415 NM and I stopped once each way. Just made it a quick fuel stop so as not to push the margins and stretch my legs at the same time. Larry Flesner
