My experience with them as they love to cross- thread and eventually spin the nut in the holder. Question , Mark and other Corvair flyers. I just got my wings down that came with my project with no information. The fuel tanks measure out 10.5 Gal per side. It has a header tank but I would sooner not use it, so can anyone give me a fairly accurate fuel burn at 75% on a Corvair that is a 110 HP version that is supposed to have been set up for 120 Horse power. la...@lebanair.com

I agree. I started my engineering career designing Space Shuttle equipment, and we used them just about everywhere to take care of tolerances between existing and new equipment, different vendor items, and it's just generally good "I know it will fit together" design practice. But when it came to stuff like mounting my cowling, I match drilled through the cowling and into the brackets with the same sise drill bit as the fastener (#8 in this case), then bolted the fixed "nut plate" (anchor nut) to the bracket, match drilled the rivets and installed them, and the resulting fit is perfect. Otherwise I'd find myself chasing the floating part around trying to get things to line up...
