Have included pictures what we have done to install Andair valve as supplied
by Vans and also solve the removal problem of the forward tunnel cover.

Dave -
Are you sure this will fit in your tunnel? Install the 90 degree
fittings and then the rudder cables and fuel lines, I think you will
find there is not enough room for everything. I did the same type
installation as you did, but moved the valve forward in the tunnel
approximately in line with the exit of the rudder cables to the rudder
pedals. Much more room up there and no issue with the cables rubbing
the fuel lines....

If you want the valve in the same location as original you'll need to
get the extension kit for the handle. The interference issues listed
below can be worked out but when you add in the 2" SCAT for the rear
heat it becomes unworkable without relocation and/or the valve
extension. Tim Olson has several good pictures of the valve with
extension on his website and my installation is almost identical.

I'm actually working through how to mount my Andair valve at the moment. Not quite mounting it yet, but making sure I know how I want to mount it so I have the correct stuff. I ordered the FS20x7-T from Neal George a while back and this thing is perfect if you want to mount in the stock location. Because it is the "Y" configuration valve (including the lines) and all three lines go straight down in a nice compact manner, you may or may not have the issues of needing the extension.
With the past issues of getting the scat tube through, combined with the plus of a lower head to draw on, I have decided to mount this thing as closer to the floor. To do this I am adding a 6 inch extension. I think this configuration is going to be the easiest to work with and should give the most space for the scat tube and other stuff similar to Bob's and Tim's setups. I am also going to probably go with something like Aeroquip 666 tubing for the run from the tanks to the valve ala Tim's config.

I just finished my install this weekend of the fuel valve with the extension
from Andair. Went smooth and pain free. I left the original bracket in place
so I can mount the valve under the center console for easy access. I got my
valve from Neal George (334-262-8993). He had the 90deg valves in stock with
extensions, got em in a couple days. I am always impressed with the quality
of Andair valves and the extension is designed and made well. You can't just
order the extension to put on a regular valve as the red pointer and top
plate is different from the original. It's a kit, six pieces plus the valve.
