Jim,
Using Aircraft Spruce:
Fiberfrax 4'x2'x1/8" = $40 Use at least two, thus $80. You may
need a bit more if the fw height is greater than 2 ft or maybe the scrap from
the width could be used. With all the bolts and area washers, the frax
will hold in place with little stickum ( hi temp silicone).
SS
301 SS 4'x3'x.025" = $124
304 SS 4'x3'x.018" = $38
So, that puts it somewhere between $118 to $204 for the frax/SS
firewall.
Surely someone will tell us what a blanket costs for a 360 and
how you seal the cut ends, etc.
Grayhawk
PS, Hard to burn through the SS and fiberfrax. Maybe someone wants to
test both with a torch - just like U.L.

Is there someone out
there that would like to make a comparison (cost, utility, performance et al)
between the blanket and the stainless/fiberfrax
installation?
