Actually, the opposite is true. Rigid regulator would force all movement stress on tubing.

Here is one photo of the pressure regulator and bypass plumbing showing
the aluminum tubing used - question - is the al. tubing  OK on the
firewall or should I replace it with flexable line?

Hi Dennis,
 
If the regulator is mounted very rigidly (not just to the stainless firewall), I'd say the aluminum line is probably OK.  The key is relative motion of course. 


Also incluced are pictures of the installed James Rotary cowl with most
of the painting finished!!

Absolutely beautiful !!! 

Cheers,
Rusty (RV-8 probably sold)
