Default Tip: Gascolator doubler

Attn -7 and -9 builders:
Install the gascolator doubler when you build the firewall. Buy the part now then delete it from your FWF order.
You'll be glad you did,
Steve

PS
The solenoid doubler and all the FWF nutplates would be easier to do at the firewall build stage. Otherwise you'll be drilling out rivets and opening holes to #12 size later.

I have a gasgolator and doubler available now. Save the $4 Van's fee. The price is what's l;isted on the Vans List. I forgot to delete these when I got my FWF. Vertical induction IO-360 uses an O-360 FWF.

I did this based on the advice of another builder too. I ordered the gascolator doubler (VA-161), and the PC680 Battery Installation Kit which comes with the plate to make the solenoid doubler.
