Had this heater manifold welded and got it installed, as another owner said his backseat passenger suggested it would be nice to have heat on both sides, not just one side. Tested it with a blow drier and I think itis going to work very nice. Summer time I can bypass the exhaust heat exchange and have addition fresh air flow.
Slowly finished the empennage after 3 months, wings will be here in May. Been looking at these forums, just started participating. Here's a few pics of my parts. Excited every day to take this journey to flight!!!
Looking good Bud!
You are really going to enjoy the wings. Look into the mushroom bucking bar/back riveting hack for the top wing skins. Keep pounding those rivets!

Getting closer! Wings on. Avionics installed. Engine bay mostly complete, need to finish baffling. Working on wingtips. Need to finish empennage fairing. Hopefully complete in a few months.

Looks great! Can't wait to have mine together, but it will be a lonngggggg time before that LOL
Here is the latest on mine, left wing skeleton built, building up the leading edge and top skins now, and soon going to be installing the Duckworks bracket for some FlyLEDs taildragger max landing lights. Figured now is a good time to install before space gets cramped LOL
