Subject: LNC2 -- landing gear springs & fuel pressure/flow sender location

Hi,
&nbsp;
Two questions regarding LNC2 I purchased:
&nbsp;
- gear overcenter springs [the 2 long tension springs on the mains].&nbsp; I've got both the twist spring and the two long tension springs per main wheel.&nbsp; In the gear down position, the actual tension per spring seems a bit low to me [maybe less than a pound of tension per spring].&nbsp; What is the standard for these springs?&nbsp; Also does anyone have a suggested supplier?
&nbsp;
- fuel pressure/flow sender location.&nbsp; I've got a vision microsystems EDI-800 system installed for the O-360.&nbsp; I'll be replacing the sender unit, but I have a question about the location.
&nbsp;
Right now, the sensor is on the aft *right* side motor mount.&nbsp; This means the fuel line goes from the gascolator [lower right side of firewall], to the engine fuel pump, back to the right side to the sender and then makes another 180 degree turn back by the fuel pump and then down to the carburetor.&nbsp; This does seem like a lot of turns in a critcial section&nbsp;for 'gravity' flow.
&nbsp;
Does anyone know of or have used a smaller compatble fuel sensor unit that fits between the fuel pump and the carburetor on a lyc O-360?&nbsp; The line between the engine fuel pump and the carb is a nice (short) down run.&nbsp; There isn't a lot of room on the left side as the oil cooler and exhaust takes up most of the volume.
&nbsp;
thanks in advance.
&nbsp;
