Phil My wings are from Gene Byrds crashed KR so I cant answer most of your questions. As for the sender question, I got mine from J.C. Whitney. I removed most of the mounting hardware and mounted it to a lastafoam sandwich and floxed it to the fwd. spar side of the tank it in the lowest part. You can see my sender installation on my website. I used vinylester for all work inside the tank. http://www.jackandsandycooper.com/tank.html

I have fitted my lower wing skins (Dan Diehl) and making the wing tanks, as per instructions. Questions 1 What is a good fuel sender to use, or how are you manually dipping your fuel tanks? 2 Finishing the leading edge, Do you use the v/ester, because it is really difficult to sand? 3 Has anyone split the wing tank in half, and fit two filler caps on each wing, this may save a sender unit, and make it possible to manually dip the smaller tanks before flight. 4 What fuel system do you use if you do not use a front tank? i.e. duel pumps plus the engine driven pump?
