Dear Listers,

 

I have now finished with a Plexiglas firewall template I = made for my IV-P, and would be pleased to donate it to a good home.  It = was used to plan and lay out the firewall forward components for my = airplane—and two others, so it’s not in pristine condition any more. = Still…the price is right if someone has a need.

 

I shaped a large piece of ¼” clear Plexiglas = to be a copy of my firewall --inside the flanges-- with attachment points, = contacts, and through-holes. I  then bolted it to my engine mount (after bolting = the engine mount to the engine) and used the template to determine placement = of additional components, check clearances, and to make the wiring connections. I then = carefully removed all components/attachments from the Plexiglas and moved the = “engine assembly” to the real firewall and bolted it up. This made it MUCH = easier to determine clearances, see what you’re doing, and was a bit more forgiving than “trial fitting” on the actual = firewall.

 

This template is too big and heavy to ship economically, = and would probably be broken in the process, but if someone in the Washington DC = could use it, it’s FOB (free on base) at Potomac Airfield (VKX) just = south of town.  Please contact me directly at rpastusek@htii.com if you’re interested.

 

Bob
