There are four different types. 1.Sides of fuslage 3 lbs. 40.5"x 40.75" 2. Nose gear tunnel (for the IV) 2 lbs. 17.25"x18" 3. Nose gear tunnel ( " ) 9 lbs. 17.75"x 56" 4. Firewall 16.5 lbs. 34" x 65.5" The sound proofing for the firewall listed is not all of it because I installed some under the floor. Whatever those dimensions are. As you can see if a builder installed all of the foam you'd have a pretty nose heavy airplane. Hope this helps.
