Default Fowler flaps?

I am presently in the process of converting a PA-22 to a Sportsman 2+2.
Plans call for new wings to be buillt from scratch and I am
considering the use of Fowler flaps rather than conventional for
greater lift, reduced stall speed, steeper landing approach and better
angle of attack/ visibility while landing. Can anyone suggest a link
or reference for plans or explanation of construction of such flaps?.
Have found little on construction techniques on the net to date.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated. TJ
