DON'T DO IT!!!
If you glass in your header tank permanently, you'll not be able to access
important stuff - such as engine mount nuts, rudder pedals/brakes, and whatever
else you have installed in the area forward of the instrument panel. Good
luck modifying and/or adding additional wiring.
My 2-cents worth.
Call if you have any questions.

Anyone have good reasoning as to why I shouldn't
permanantly bond my header tank on? I tried the hinge method and the fit
with the cowling was terrible so I had to take the entire thing apart today.
Now Im thinking it may be a whole lot easier to install and finish by bonding
the tank on for good. My brake systems are all easily
accesible even with it on. I cant think of any reason I would ever remove
it after the thing is flying. Anybody have a good argument against
this?
Thanks.
