Default Bob Parkinson F-18

I bought a used Bob Parkinson F-18. I am wanting to overhaul the plane before I flew it. It is the old kit with the fiberglass covers. I need to know if anyone has a manual or set of plans. I also need the location of the fuel tank and size. If anyone if familiar with this plane I would like to know if there is anything I need to look out for. I am thinking of putting on a OS 91 with a Hurricane Fan. I need to know what type of pipe to use with this and were to order a fan shroud. This is my first ducted fan any information would be helpful.
Thanks,
Keith

Keith,
I have the plan (1 sheet), instruction booklet, and construction
video that I can copy and send to you for $ 20 if no ones gives
them to you free. Hopefully some one has what you need at no
cost.

I had the BP F-18 for a short time, and if think it had a 20 oz tank. It was mounted just under the canopy.
As far as a pipe, go with a Weston pipe. I think Top Gun sells them or JDE
