Always bugged me that the firewall wasn't perfectly polished
 -
Everything to the left of where the sheet metal bends down around the heater is polished. To the right is what it used to look like

You can see the difference where I polished it

Yeah i know, they told me but i don't want to move it and leave holes in my firewall. i don't plan on racing it enough to really cause an issue.

nevr dull should make it shine really well, and when you're done top it all with zoop sealant, p21s also works pretty good but zoop seams to be the best.

It's a wilwood master cylinder. I am running 13" wilwood brakes all the way around. Stops really good, had no issues at the track.

Yeah initially it stops at the hood mounts but we lengthened it to go to the fire wall.
