I put sheet silicone, held with little stainless strips, around the holes cut for the engine mount. This provides a good seal around the tubes. There was a good deal of trimming with a dremel to get a good fit. I was going to use fire caulk around the seams but ended up putting insulation over the whole thing anyway so I ommited the sealant. Hope this helps. > Troy Maynor > > > http://www.europaowners.org/forums/gallery2.php?g2_itemId=44024 > > > Read this topic online here: > > http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=316406#316406 > > > . > ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 10:24:36 AM PST US Subject: Europa-List: Re: Singleton firewall From: "graeme bird" I am now confused about the firewall, can I ask, is this for the tri-gear only, is it in addition to the Stainless firewall or instead of? Is it quicker or better? Some people seem to have used adhesive backed foil sheet over the whole area including surround. And the FWFD kit includes a quantity of firewall fabric, what is that used for. I have ordered the engine and fwfd kit and just getting ready for them, I have the shiny firewall plates done.

I don't see why not. I think it was designed for both but not sure. It is an alternative to making the stainless one. At first I thought it unuseable but I got to sanding and filing and am very pleased with the results. It is easily removeable after you remove the engine mount.
