Default RE: How to reinforce a firewall?

Wow, thanks for all the help you guys have come up with. I'm gonna go ahead and reinforce the landing gear with some tri stock and epoxy when i get the plane, because I fly from quite a rough grass runway, and ive seen many taildraggers lose their main gear on there.With regards to the firewall, I'll check whether it already has tri stock behind it, and if not i'll coat it with some epoxy. I would beef it up some more, but I will be putting a 46AX in it, and with pdm52956 saying its nose heavy anyway, I don't want to make it worse.
