flop tube fitting
I bought a partially-completed RV-7 wing kit. The tanks are nearly done. Just have to install the fuel pickup. I'm going with a flop tube in one tank. Since the angle has already been riveted and sealed, I was just going to drill the 9/16 hole with everything in place rather than drilling the angle out and starting over. I'll have to clean the considerable amount of proseal to make room for the contact area of the fitting. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
