I started the build with the center wing unit and engine mounting. I epoxied the two inboard wing sections togethere as outlined in the instruction manual, than epoxied the two engine compartment units to the wing center section which well make up the center wing section of my three piece wing. I opted to not use the kit supplied firewalls and cut mine out of 1/4" hard ply about 1/2" larger than the supplied units. If you look close at the engine instalation you well see that I used two 1/4" ply strips as a spacer behind the firewall, and the second spacer is tapper sanded to provide about a 1 degree offset of the engine toward the wing tip. ( I also used a larger dowl 5/16" ) for the two dowls mounted at wing center for aligment, I set the wing into the sadle and used a very long 5/16" drill bit, to drill a hole from the front of the fuselage former into the wing leading edge to make for a accurate dowl and hole installation.
