I'm looking forward to completion. Working on the left elevator w/ trim tab right now, so I can finish the elevator pushrod from the bellcrank back. Then I have to make the tail intersection fairing since the factory part is a really poor fit.

Dave Anders built a modified 4 that did close to 250 mph with a hopped up 360 engine. I think he was pushing about 230-240 hp to do it. I plan on cruising at about 65% power at around 190 mph true (indicated speed will be much less) at 10,000 feet.

Do you have any pictures of your panel, as that is in the heavy planning stage right now. I thinking a standard 6 pack, Trutrak, and King. Trouble is in fitting in an engine monitoring system too, like a Vision Microsystem.
