Another portion of the fuel system has been assembled.

We have elected to go with he AirFlow Performance maintainable fuel filter and auxiliary fuel pump. AFP insisted that the fuel pump be located in the fuselage, rather than behind the firewall, to eliminate the opportunity for vapor lock. The assembly is currently sitting on a mock-up foam shelf. We need to install hard points so that we can mount a removable fiberglass shelf.

All fuel lines from the tanks to the fuel filter/fuel pump are AN-8 (1/2"). The lines between the fuel pump and the engine will be AN-6 (3/8").
