Dear All, I am back after few years of no activity due to work reasons. I am still working on my KR2 Revmaster 2100D since 1992 and hope to finish it for next year. Need to connect fuel to engine, electrical wiring and basic instrument panel. I am located in north Italy Lake Garda and Lugano in Switzerland. Best regards to everyone, Shahar
