Tried several searches,(VAF) guess I don't have key word so here goes. My 9A (IO-320 D1A)I have a Andair boost pump with filter and selector valve. Will I need a gascolator on the firewall and then my fuel line to the mechanical engine pump or just a fuel line from boost pump to firewall direct to mechanical engine pump? My fuel line (per plans) comes out 7" above exhaust pipe. Don't think a gascolator would fit there plus there is a cross member on engine mount that might hit the lower edge of gascolator. In my mind exhaust pipe and gasoline dont mix. Is there a gascolator or something similar, to act as a sump drain? Or do I need drain point firewall forward? Only drain points are on bottom of both fuel tanks.
Would like your feelings on the subject either way. Haven't called Vans yet.. I'm in Oregon, temperature in summer run in the 90s and little humidity but winter time highs 40-50s with more humidity.
