Hi all, since my firewall was misdrilled when I got it - I build a new one according to the plans, resulting in about 10 3/4" from the middle of the cabane tube to the top of the firewall.

Right after having it drilled, I stumbled across a pic of N40JU where the firewall seems to be mounted way lower than mine. Question is: How high is the firewall on your 10-200 or on your project? Any measure is welcome, length of exposed streamline cabane tube, length from cross tube to top firewall etc. pp. I can deal with anything but really want to get it right now before having to dump the next fuel tank straps...
