Brief Description:	manifold spacer - oil and fuel sensors
I purchased a piece of aluminum from Skycraft, along with 5 1/4 x 20 bolts 2 1/4 inches long for the FAB connection to the fuel servo. Out of the aluminum I made a spacer to stand the manifold off the firewall so that the oil switch could be installed in the side port. I installed the fuel and oil sensors and the oil switch. I also attached the fuel pressure hose. I made the spacers for the oil cooler mounting bolts out of 5/16 tubing and installed the bolts that secure the cooler. I drilled the bolt heads, breaking two .40 drill bits, then realized that the bolts are too long. They need to be less than 2 inches. I shipped the E mag and P mag back to Emagair to have the latest firmware installed. I was going to secure the oil pressure hose to the firewall but realized that I should have installed nutplates for that purpose. I will have to go back and do that. I do not recognize the specified nutplate from the description on the plans.
