Jack,
Last week, I met with my Loctite rep on a completely different matter, and during
the conversation, he mentioned the development of a new adhesive that works
with polyethylene and polypropylene.
Since UHMW is in the same family as the other two polymers, it may work; as soon
as I get a product #, I'll post it in this thread.

Since I used a front fuse fuel tank I never added the cowl support. The stiffner
made a great shelf for my coils and ignition switcher.

I would not recommend mounting ignition coils (if thats what coils your talking
about) in the same area as the fuel tank. Spill a little fuel during refueling
or a slight leak in a seam and it could get ugly on start up .

Seeing the picture of Rick's setup reminded me to mention something to builders
who are installing a nose mounted tank. The way mine is arranged, there is little
or no room to run control cables or anything bigger than electrical wiring
from the cockpit to the engine through the firewall because the space is so
tight between the inside plywood and the fuel tank. And even when you squeak
a Bowden cable or tach cable or something else through there, when it gets to
the firewall there is wood framing that you don't want to make a hole through
so you have to offset the cable to clear it and that reduces the smoothness of
the cable movement. Not sure how to avoid that except to build a notch or offset
into the side of the tank to allow control cables to get past it and through
the firewall in a straight line.
In this picture- http://www.flysquirrel.net/piets/engine/A75final001.jpg , you can see the things that have to get past the fuel tank on the port side of my airplane. Oil temperature line, tach cable, throttle cable, and carb heat cable. The tach cable is the tightest in my setup because once it gets through the firewall it has to jog over to the tach drive connection and I didn't have much slack in the cable to make the offset. I improved the situation by adding a 90 degree fitting to the tach drive and that helped by letting the cable make a gentle 90 degree sweep instead of an S-turn.
