Hi Guys,
I have searched this forum but could find a suitable answer, only one reference, (http://www.vansairforce.com/community/showthread.php?t=9330) so I?m going to ask.
Is the Van?s Firewall Forward kits worth it for the RV7?
Considering:
1) The Engine I am leaning (currently) towards an XP IO 360 CS with Roller Tappets; and
2) That I am situated in South Africa (SA), which means less availability and choices of manufactures and suppliers compared to the USA ease of ordering and shipping)
Q1 )To the guys that have gone before me, is it worth it? Or can one do better?
Q2) If one considers the bulk of Van?s stuff is OK, what would you replace and get from somewhere else. Since I have basically one chance to get orders together and shipped at the same time from my forwarder in the USA to SA.
Q3) What is not included that I will have to source elsewhere?
Q4) Lastly what kind exhaust is standard in the Van?s Kit? I see a lot of talk currently on exhaust on the forum. Can one do better without increasing a lot of cost?
Thank your very much in advance.
Kind Regards
Rudi
