Finally the firewall going on for the last time.

It took a little bit of work to get everything aligned but it was time well spent. It took several hours to create the lip on the floor sections where they meet the firewall. My floor pans were made to extend several inches up the firewall (not sure if they all are this way or not).


Firewall held in with Klekos


This is the money shot just before installing the firewall for the last time. After this pic, I shot the entire overlap with weld thru primer.


As you can see here the firewall hump did not line up with the hump in the floor.


In this pic you can see that I welded a bolt to a piece of 1x1 square tube and ran the bolt through the floor. Then I attached a nut and washer from the other side and used this jig to pull the floor in line with the firewall. As you can see from the pic it worked pretty good.



Here is a better pic of the jig. I still have some welding to do but it's in there like it should be.
