    Paul,
    The accident was on 05Jul10 at about 10:30 AM.

    On the tailwheel, I received the Matco with the kit. I assume it is still standard with the SS. BTW, the tailwheel was bent during the off-field landing.

    About a year later, a major modification has been completed. The Rotec radial was replaced with a Continental O-200. Empty weight is 850 lbs, CG is 15% MAC. Flys great! Fun meter is back in the green
