    818 Build Manual Updates

    I've searched the entire forum, but I cannot find any specific references to Build Manual update #1G. The full manual that I downloaded was version #1F, and the update that I received Monday was #1H which leads me to think that I am missing update #1G. Can anyone confirm if such an update exists?

    Thanks!

    It does exist. As I recall, 1G only concerned the NA exhaust setup.

    Well that's kinda important, considering he's running NA. Try emailing Joe Scott.

    Can we get a link to the newest update?

    We haven't gotten a manual update e-mail since 1F and we're doing doors and the windscreen today.

    THANKS!!

    I haven't gotten any updates at all. Those of you that did - was the update emailed to you automatically, or did you call/email & request it?

    Thanks,

    Bill

    Last one I got was F, seems their distribution sucks, and for a limited number of 818 sold so far this should not be a hard thing to do.
