| firewalls
i have had a few questions about firewalls
for the front, the standard bulkhead between the engine and the passenger compartment is good enough..... if all holes in it are filled in -
make sure wires through it are in grommets
if you remove anything that leaves a hole inthe bulkhead it needs to be filled with ali,fibreglass, fireproof mastic etc
The easiest way to check is to have a strong light one side of the bulkhead and look at it from the othe side.... if you can see any light then the hole needs filling
for the boot - if the boot is empty - no fuel tanks, swirl pots, fuel pumps,nitrous then a firewall is not needed. If the boot has anything like that in it then you need a firewall between the boot and the passenger compartment
as with any of the regs if your not sure ask here,pm me or email me |
