I performed this check also, but like Mark, I did it for my own piece of mind.
I changed all my fuel line from 1/4" rubber hose/barb fittings to 3/8" aluminum
tubing with flair fittings and Stainless braided aeroquip hose from the
gascolator to the engine. I calculated the 1/2 tank flow rate

Sure. I would hope we've all done it, but not because anybody made me do
it...just did it because it was the smart thing to do. Mine was something
like 38 gph flow, although the Corvair only needs about

P.S. The flow test is much easier to do in a tail dragger. :-) :-)

I was not requested or required to perform the test but I did it on
my own. My Facet pumps deliver 30 gallon per hour, 500
Here are two pictures for a max fuel flow test to determine if the fuel
system can deliver at least 150% fuel flow to the engine during worst case
conditions of 14 degrees angle of attack, full throttle and minimum fuel in
the operating tank. My FAA inspector mandated criteria is to bleed off
I also am looking for an O-200 engine mount or plans. Anyone out there to
help us out?
