I'd like to thank those of you who have assited me in restoring the Kitfox over the past many months and wish you the very best for Christmas and also the New year. I'll have many more questions in the future I have no doubt.

Just so the intolerant can manage to get past this message without having a stroke, I have been reading a bit about engine monitors, ignition and such for my 582 which should be checked over and possibly rebuilt before flight as it has been sitting for a few years. I have the standard analogue guages and was wondering about the electronic versions. Any experiences?

As always, off line responses are probably best. occom(at)ns.sympatico.ca (occom(at)ns.sympatico.ca)

I have the Grand Rapids EIS. I like it a lot, as it gives warnings
when my EGT peaks. I can't vouch for the reliability of even mine
since I've only got 55 hours on it. Customer service was great,
however, when I had trouble figuring out what wire to use for RPM. Oh
yes, it's very easy to install, with clear instructions.

I have in the neighborhood of 350 hours on mine. No problems ever.
