Thanks Lorn that makes sense. The problem is the only place to locate the
A/C evaporator/blower is at the top of the stack and the GNS430W extends too
far back at the top of the stack. I hope to be mostly flying the EFIS.
N31161 is a beautiful plane.

Stan,

The "Garmin GNS 430W NAV/COM/ GPS" should be at the top of the center stack.
You will be looking at this instrument more than the Instrument cluster when
flying IFR. Having to look down a lot of the time while flying IFR can
induce vertigo.

What a beautiful panel. I fly IFR all of the time and my steam gage panel
works but I wish that I had yours.

 I'm trying to finalize my panel and would appreciate any comments, advise or  suggestions. So far this panel costs $35K in components. I am an electrical  engineer and worked for 8 years at Cessna as an instrumentation engineer so  I plan to wire the panel myself. All I have now are the Garmin components. I  want to eliminate "steam gages" but
want equivalent electronic redundancy.
 Is AirVenture a good place to buy avionics? .
