Firewall wiring hole

Post by Doakes »

Can someone tell me of their experience of the placement of the wiring pass through the firewall. Where you drilled the hole and where you wished you had drilled the hole? I have an RV7A IO360.
thanks
Dave

P.S. Almost ready to mount the engine

Dave,

Mine are in a similar location too.

Should work well for you too!

Don't forget to put the hinges on now. The riveting is easier without the engine truss installed!
