Firewall forward systems progress

Two of three duct tee SCAT hose hookups in place.

Final fuel line (from firewall to engine-driven pump) connected!

Last of the duct tee SCAT hose hookups in place. The large Adel clamp suspending the hose from the engine mount is another of those cantilevered clamp arrangements and its screw/washer/nut were a first-class bitch to get started, even with all of the usual “tricks” in play.

Various oil cooler inlet and support components being primed.

Cooler inlet assembly riveted together.

Cooler inlet assembly tape masked for application of RTV.

Oil cooler fittings installed.

Oil cooler ‘P’ seals installed.
