I’m swapping an Audi V8 into a fully caged car and am thinking of cutting out the engine bay surround and installing an aluminum firewall behind the seat that goes all the way to the fiberglass top. This would allow me to access the engine without removing it. I’m confident I could get the firewall sealed up and I have four back bars (two tied into the shock towers and two tied into the frame rails so I don’t think I’d loose rigidity). What do you guys think, am I off my rocker here?
