Default Kits grandfathered
This from www.eaa.org

"April 11 2008 — Manufacturers and owners of aircraft kits that were previously evaluated and approved by the FAA as eligible to be certificated in the Experimental Amateur-Built Category under the FAA’s 51% Rule received welcome news at Sun ’n Fun Friday. The FAA announced that it will not re-evaluate any previously approved aircraft kits under its new policy on amateur-built certification."

This was pretty much assured, but finally hearing it from the FAA was a relief.
