Reply to "firewall upgrades?"

I went with the polished stainless steel, I put it over some aluminum backed heat/ sound insulation then covered the passenger side of the firewall with the same stuff under the fibreglass panel. I also glued it to the hatch that covers the front of the engine. Huge difference (improvement) in sound and temp insulation.

As to the stuff on the firewall, I bolted the relay and 2 coils to the bracket and I have 2 MSD boxes screwed to the firewall as I plan on making my ignition system redundant so that if (when) one fails I flip a switch and the other one comes into play.

By the way, the firewall job is a pain. It would definitely be helpful to have a helper because it will take several times in and out of the car to trim it to fit, cut a/c line holes etc. Put duct tape all around the edges to protect your hands & the finish in your engine bay. It looks great when it is done and I believe worth the effort.
