I was wondering how I am going to do that or if I am going to do that. If I do use the SS firewall, I think I will simply scribe the area I want cut and go to a local sheet metal cutting facility with a hydraulic sheer and have them cut it. I think it will cost about $100 to have them do it. The next option is to use the high tech matting that Lancair provides for the Lancair IV's firewall. Does anyone have any suggestions on which method would be better (lighter, quieter, stronger)? Regards, Ed Armstrong Watsonville CA.
