I covered my firewall with a fireproof mat from ASS. and the top sectionwith a 1" insulated fireproofing. The inspector at sign off commented thateven without the extras, before burn thru of the firewall, with a wod plane,I would have some other things to think about. He would have been OKwithout it.Dick N.----- Original Message -----

Rick,There is a requirement for this. It's somewhere around .016", but I forget.Just remember it can't be aluminum.I didn't use insulation, only used a 90 deg bend on the straight sides and a"metal shrinker" to get an overlap of about 1/2" on the top curved surface.The curve came out great!walt evansNX140DL----- Original Message -----
