A few questions before you go down that path.  Don't take any offense
   to these as I don't know what aerobatic experience you may or may not
   have and before I had experience I also thought that to do aerobatics
   that you needed inverted fuel and oil.

   Do you have aerobatic experience and if so do you plan on sustained
   inverted flight and outside maneuvers?  If you do I would recommend a
   Pitts, not a KR.

   Do you realize that you can do a very wide range of aerobatics without
   inverted fuel and oil?  I have a Mustang 2 without inverted fuel or oil
   and regularly do loops, rolls, Split S, Immelemans, hammerheads, barrel
   rolls, and Cuban 8s.  I keep positive G through all of them (except for
   brief 0G at the top of a hammerhead) and have never had my engine even
   hickup.

   Have you ever tried inverted flight or negative G maneuvers?  I have
   done them in a Pitts and they really are not comfortable or fun.  If
   you are an airshow performer you need to do them, but for having fun
   you pretty much want to stay away from them.

   I searched inverted fuel flow in the archives. Flying upsidedown, I
   need
   some ideas on how not to starve the carb while inverted. If this was
   mentioned in the plans I may have missed it.
