one of the things we highly recommend is to glass in the firewall all the way around. I prefer this method over pinning. I just feel it gives the firewall better support. I've seen where the pins have actually pulled through the engine box side like a knife on some installations in a nose over.

John. have lots of fun with the plane. like Keith said check the socket cap screws on the landing gear brackets. A little loctite will take care of them backing out from vibration.

Enjoy
