Thanks to Douwe Blumberg, Walt Evans, and Dan Helper for responding to my pleas for advice. I think the steel strapping for the fuel tank sounds like a good method but I also have some nylon straps that would work well if I find a way to tighten them. I am going to try a 3/8 hole for the steam vent and can go larger if needed. I am still a ways from running the engine but would like to have the machine work on the head done so I can install it. I am going to try to get to sun'n'fun at least 2 days 17&18 and maybe I will get to see a real live Pietenpol thereDon Lane________________________________________________________________________________
