I just started on the center section of my RV-8 fuselage.  In the instructions it states that if you received your center section with your wing kit, not to use it as it will not work with the pre-punched fuselage kit.  



This part doesn't bother me as my center section came with my fuselage kit just two months ago.  However, I checked the numbers on my wing spars and compared them to the number on my center section package and they do not match.  Are they suppose to?



The numbers on my spars are 81966R & PP3T61966R on the right and 81966L & PP3T61966L on the left.  The number on my center section package is 8-2238.  



I thought I had read somewhere that the spars and center sections were matched sets.  I'm hesitant to go any farther until I find out and thought I would ask here first.  If anyone can provide any insight, I would appreciate it.  



Thanks,
