-Cracked the code alittle more today on the baffling. Figured out all the locations where the baffling ties to the engine as 'hard points'. Obviously once these are fastened that drives where the baffle 'sit' and then I can start to clamp and match drill and fit other parts that go on and feel confident to trim (maybe even fit the dreaded snorkel). I cut the support angles for the forward ramps, except for the left side one which the instructions for the snorkel says will be different with the airfilter box installed. I had to tap the 4 cylinder baffle attach points for 1/4 28 (AN4) since they were already drilled out too big for AN3 (as called out in the plans). I'll have to pick up some AN4-3 bolts next week at Lane All in all, decent progress.
