Paul,  do you recommend 7/8" x .049 wall tubing for the kiss engine
mount?   Also,  what is the thickness   (and length and width) of the
small plates bolted to the firewall.  Did you use 1/4 inch bolts to
attach to the firewall?     Did you make any changes from the stock
plans  as far as mount locations on the firewall?      Thanks,  Jerry

7/8 is over kill. Won't hurt and won't add a lot of weight either.
However 3/4 .049  is plenty strong enough.
