Drill the holes larger for the blind nuts and install them.

Temporarily install the motor mount and locate the engine kill. It is located in a different location due to the use of the motor mount with needle valve assembly.

Once you are satisfied with the engine kill reinstall the parts.

Install a 1/64" plywood spacer between the spinner cowl. Tape them to the fuselage to allow for a straight installation.

Apply about 0.4 ounces of epoxy to the firewall and apply pieces of cut up fiberglass cloth. Mix the cloth and glue as needed and work to the outside edges.
