I've been trying to determine whether the firewall forward kit is a good deal or not. I've put every thing that is listed on the Van's website for an RV7 0-320 constant speed on a spread sheet and I looked up the prices for each item. The only things I did not find the prices for were hardware bags 607, 608, 611, and 613, plus a few bags of rivets. When I totaled up the parts individually they only came to 4426.54, whereas Van's charges $4600 for the whole FWF Kit. Perhaps there's some expensive ($157 worth of) hardware in those 4 bags I couldn't find the prices for, but has anyone else found the FWF kit not to be much of a deal? I must be missing something, but is it really as cheap (or cheaper) to buy the items individually?
