Just curious, but I assume this is about PN# 12 STIFFENER KIT? If so then isn't it just a piece of angle that gets riveted to the firewall and out of sight? I'm having trouble figuring out what paint would need to be touched up. I haven't been able to find this kit listed for sale on Van's website yet, but I assume some have been able to order it? On the other hand if this is about something else, just ignore me
Just ordered my firewall stiffening kit from Van's. The lady that took my order chuckled and said "wow, someone must have posted something online recently. Our phones are going crazy with orders for these".
Yep, $25 plus nominal freight.
I seriously doubt the modifications are only for noise attenuation.

Yep, Dave is right. A closer look revealed that there is no clean way to get to that rivet without removing the bowl or at least the plug. As you will need a bit more room for clecoing, removing the bowl is a must.The Gascolator Bowl has to be removed, that's all.
