fiberglass fuse</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello all expert builders...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have to install a new firewall in the
fiberglass fuse of my Nova and I want to do it right. I have a few
questions.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What is the more efficient/easy way to
figure the exact contour to cut the firewall?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Once the firewall is properly cut, I am intending
to:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Glue a shim behind the backplate</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Install the engine on the engine
mount</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Install the nose ring</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Install the backplate and cone</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Suspend the plane nose up to locate the
firewall</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Tape the cone to the fuselage</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Tack glue the engine mount on the firewall with
CA</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Glue the firewall with epoxy and fiberglass on
aft face</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Once dry, remove the engine and engine
mount</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Add fiberglass on foward face of firewall.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Do I forget something ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thank you</FONT></DIV>
