Decided against the solid alm sleeving. Will use the alm block for building saddles for various components such as the oil tank bracket. Mounted exhaust today as well as muffler mounting bracket, carbs, throttle and oil cable lines up to splitter. Also mounted sending units for EGT and CHT gauges. IVO prop arrived today.
Mounted exhaust elbow today after having spring hooks welded and ran all the fuel line components.
Also ordered final misc. Very happy with the result of being able to use my existing hang gliding flight deck with the ultralight gauges. I have a few misc pieces to finish but overall the trike is now complete except for test flight. Performed the 1 hour breakin on the 503 today. All went well except for the failure of one of the egt sensors.
