Default Can't find my firewall gussets

Hi All,
I'm currently getting parts together to start on my firewall but i can't seem to find any of my firewall gussets (F-601C-1, F-1, G-1, H-1)
The parts index shows them as manufactured parts, I've scoured the box with no luck and also cannot find mention of them in my original fuse packing list, are they hidden away somewhere that i may have missed or does anyone know which subkit they were included in, it's driving me crazy i'm sure i've missed something
cheers
Taran

Default Spacers

It's been a while but I think they are fabricated. I have a note in my blog about fabricating the 601C spacers so I asume the others were as well. I couldn't find a detail on the plan nor info in the manual. Also not found in my inventory.
I asume this is ine of those jobs we do and don't think about.
Dimensions can be figured out from the plans. 3/8" scale.
A call to Vans would confirm.
