Hey - I've been searching and it appears that removing the fuel pump to install a cooling shroud on a hung engine is no simple task.
As an alternative, I am wondering if I could;
1) cut the shroud in half
2)remove one of the bolts holding the pump on
3) attach one half of the shroud
4) reinstall the first bolt
5) remove the 2nd bolt
6) install the other half
7) reinstall the 2nd bolt
8) finally - lay up a couple of layers of fiberglass to join the two halves of the shroud back together.
I'll still have the fun of having to use a mirror to safety wire the two bolts together.
Is there any reason why this wouldn't work?
Thanks,
Jason
