Brief Description:  Ignition Wire Baffle Pass-Thru

Time to sort out how the top side ignition wires need to pass through the rear baffles. Strangely, the FW FRD kit just say's 'supplied by engine mfg.'. Well, not true in my case, so a bit of googling takes me to Aircraft Spruce. Located two of these 2-part pass-through seals for getting the ignition wires from the magneto to the spark plug.

Located where on the aft engine baffle to drill 4 holes, 2 for the screws, and 2 more as a locate hole for using a unit bit to final drill so the seals fit nicely in this sort of figure-eight cut out.

Also, drilled the two holes required for the blast hose directing high pressure air to the magnetos, and installed the blast tubes. There will be one or two more, one possibly for the mech fuel pump, the other for the alternator.
