Did you tear the firewall off in flight, or on a landing? What engine were you using?
Da50 with a 22x8 PT models prop and did it doing an impromptu harrier landing, I hit the power too late in the landing and off popped the engine.

I've seen engines tear lose a non-pinned firewall just from doing a blender or even a pretty hard wall. These were firewalls that had joints and tri-stock and after time these eventually worked loose
