Thinking about drilling a 3/4 inch hole through the firewall to an Accusump on the other side. The Accusump will sit facing backwards towards the cockpit firewall mounted where the seat normally goes.
Anyone ever drilled through this section. There is a black arrow where I want the hole. All advice appreciated. BTW I'm going to cover up that higher hole where the lines used to run to the front cooler. |

Aeroquip AQP Socketless Hose Sure looks like a lot easier to work with as compared to the SS wrapped lines. Decided to go that way, but the pliers to crimp the clamps, recommended in high temperature situations, was $80 bucks. Ouch. Oh well another interesting tool to place in the green felt. |
