I fit the remaining sidewall and riveted the stiffener on the sidewall above cylinder 3.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

The center of the aft wall needs a stiffener to brace it. \u00a0This is the bracket that comes with the baffle kit. \u00a0You can see that it interferes with the installed position of the lightspeed ignition coils. \u00a0I’m going to try moving the coils forward so that I can install this bracket relatively unmodified.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

I’m going to have to modify this bracket somewhat though since the holes don’t line up with the case.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

I cut off the aft flange of the bracket.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

This allowed the bracket to slip aft enough for the holes to line up. \u00a0I’ll end up riveting an angle to the aft edge to replace the flange I cut off, but I’m going to wait until I fit the cowl since this might have to get cut down a bit.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

I slipped some bolts into the bracket to see how things line up. \u00a0I reformed the fuel line to cylinder 4 to clear the bracket by about 1\/4″. \u00a0I also reformed the steel attach bracket on the right so that it raises up the mounting point for the adel clamp..<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

I set up a straight edge to get an idea where the top of the cowl will be located. \u00a0I’m going to move the ignition coils forward by by about an inch from their original location and raise them up a bit to clear the spider.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

I sketched out a bracket on some 1\/8″ angle stock that will allow the ignition coils to be mounted to two case bolts instead of one. \u00a0The aft hole for this bracket was the mounting point for the original bracket. \u00a0It’s nearly two in the morning, so I’ll cut this out tomorrow.<\/p>\n
