I ordered Vans axle nuts (for wheel pant installation) and a new Cablecraft throttle cable since the one I got from Pegasus seemed to have detents/wasn't smooth.

| Near the #2 exhaust, the red baffling material wasn't laying down good. I marked it with a sharpie, then cut a slit in it. There was a gap near the #3 exhaust that was addressed. There's a small gap near the starter that needs attention as well. |
 |
| The form for the NACA diffuser is brought out of retirement to either make a repair or a few new diffusers and cooling ramps. It was made with soft styrofoam and box tape, a little wavy. I pulled the tape off, used sheet rock mud and smoothed it up. |
 |
| The diffuser should have had a stronger rip across the top. There's a notch cut for the throttle cable to clear the aft edge of the diffuser. |
 |
| The top edge of the diffuser was getting pulled downward by the force of the inlet air. |
