In October of 2011, I purchased a Vans RV-8 "QuickBuild" experimental aircraft kit. This blog serves as my builders log and captures the major portions of the build process.

Engine Site Survey
Took a ride up to KFDK this afternoon with Mike Regen in his RV-6 to see the engine
that will eventually make its way into the RV. This is a gorgeous
Superior IO-360 engine that was built by Mike Peters (KTM Mid Atlantic Engines) and has been preserved in his office for the past two years. The engine has been bored, balanced, and has a custom
paint job with lots of chrome (black cases/jugs, red sump/push rod tubes,
polished stainless intakes).
