As you say the cut out size is 9.5inch and the factory recommended position
for the bulkhead is 12inch aft of the firewall.
You could move the firewall forward slightly (say 1.5inch max). Personally
I would leave it were it is. My experience is that it is hard enough to
reach what you want with the standard position so I would not make it any
smaller.

Thanks Ian
I will go with the Tech Talk position of 12 inches. As you say, it will give acceptable
access to the Mod 71 springs, etc.
Many thanks.

Take care with the little door method as this will probably need to go through
theLAA as a mod!
