Brief Description:  Forward floor - 2) firewall prep for rivets

Next I drilled the common holes for the firewall angle/forward floor rivets and deburred all. I needed to dimple the forward floor to match the countersunk holes in the firewall angle - so I did. Then I pulled out the pro-seal and sealed the center section (per plans) to keep oil, etc. from making it's way into the cabin. The forward floor center section is the only section that gets the pro-seal as the rest of the firewall will be sealed later.

I laid down some painter's tape, then spread the proseal, then pealed the tape - and clecoed the firewall in place. I will rivet those called out holes tomorrow after the proseal sets up bit.
