Default Camloc Follow up

I called in on Monday and spoke to Jeremy. I'll second the comment about what a great guy he is to deal with. I ordered the full kit. Thanks again for coordinating the buy!

He mentioned he was thinking of offering a stainless receptacle in addition to an aluminum one. I thought the durability of stainless would offset the increased weight and asked him to ship me that option if it was available, so you might think about that.

Regards,
Tom,
Please add my name to list. I shall contact Jeremy directly.
I am interested in the Stainless version as I don't see the weight difference as being a mojor factor.

Ray Jarvis.

Count me in also.

Couple of questions:

1) How many fasteners are we getting and what spacing along the cowl will that support. From prior posts I see that builders like to opt for 3.5" spacing to avoid any puckering.

2) Are special tools necessary for installation? If so which ones?

Jason,
There are 3 kits to choose from depending on what you want. The full kit for the 7A contains 52 fasteners for the cowl plus we include 2 wing head fasteners for the oil access door. The firewall only kit contains 30 fasteners and the side only kit contains 24. Recommended spacing is 3 ? 4 inches. Two tools are required for installation. The 4P3 C-lock pliers (similar to cleko pliers) depress the stud assembly so that it can be installed in the grommet. The T26 snap ring tool installs the retaining ring on the back side of the grommet. Let me know if you need more info.

Best regards,
Jeremy
