Not all the cutouts were current form the summer and TAF has a much better diagram guide for it. I permanently mounted the firewall shield to the firewall.
7/22/20 Made a template of the fire wall and made cutouts. Reinstalled the engine mount. Had to adjust for the missing parachute brackets. I ordered the aircraft without a parachute but they sent me the hardware for the parachute Brackets. No big deal just shorter bolts.
The main section of the firewall blanket is not attached to the frame just yet. I will made a few known cutouts but I will wait for the engine/prop kit to get a more accurate sense of the additional cutouts required.
7/17/20Removed engine mount to start the preparation of the firewall. Installed some rivnuts and reviewed the heater installation behind the firewall and the coolant hoses that go through.
