This is how I secured the standoffs on my GP Extra 300s. I drilled and tapped k&S bar stock 1/4 by 20 on one end and 10/32 on the other. I cut two pieces of 1/4 ply to span the top and bottom holes in the fire wall, then drilled 1/4 in holes where the standoffs go. I inserted the 1/4 20 bolts in these hole and secured them with liquid weld. I then placed them in the holes in the fire wall from behind. The stand offs are now screwed to the Bolts with locktite blue. This, I think added some strength to the fire wall and not much weight. Slow epoxy should work as well as liquid weld.
