Manual Reference:  Firewall Manifold
Brief Description:  Oil/Fuel pressure manifold to firewall

Drilled the 3 position manifold to the firewall, then found the assorted parts and mounted the plugs, the fittings, the oil and fuel pressure lines and the two Dynon sensors. I used Bakerseal (with PTFE) for all the plugs and 45/90 degree fittings. Of course, nothing on the flared fittings other than correct tightening procedures. I noted that if you mounted the maniford 1st, then you could not insert the 45 and 90 fittings without interference with the firewall. Some build sites show using a spacer behind the manifold to push it away in order to mount the fittings or to actually mount the sensors sideways instead of straight out.
