Brief Description:  Installed Alternator Bracket/Marked Top Skin

I bolted the battery ground strap to the firewall. The fuel line fitting on the fuel pump going from the gascolater to the fuel pump was rotated upward to move the fuel line away from the Scat tube. I safety-wired the two screws on the gascolator.
The alternator bracket was screwed into the engine case and the locking tabs were bent per the plans. The alternator was temporarily hung in place and the support arm was positioned next to the starter. The support arm needed to bent forward about 1/4''. I clamped the arm between blocks of wood in the vise and used a hammer and another block of wood to put the bend in it.
I clecoed the camloc brackets to the fuselage sides and bottom.
After Joe and I clecoed the top skin in place, I measured and marked the leading edge of the top skin for where the firewall lies.
