Today, I built the lower brake lines and connected them to the calipers.
I also built the small aileron pushrods that connect from the bellcrank to the aileron.

Brake Lines; Fuel Valve; Wheel Pant Nutplates
Yesterday and today, I built and then rebuilt the left side upper brake line and routed it differently than before, as completed yesterday, to avoid going into the area that was previously modified that will have a flat plate on it. I didn't want to go into that new plate. I also built and routed the upper right side the same way. I drilled a hole in the forward side of the "tunnel" and installed a grommet so the brake tubing will not chafe. The first photo shows the original way that is in the plans and the other three photos show the new installation.
I also completed the fuel valve installation with the new plate. This took quite the accurate measurements to avoid having non-round holes in the new plate.
The nutplates for the wheel pants were installed as well.
The last bolt in the engine mount was also installed.
