Hi I was looking to make a smooth metal cover for the engine bulkhead. I'm sure I seen someone had done it before with a sheet of stainless but couldn't find it on the forum.
Would anyone have the dims or drawing template that I could use to make a panel?

Cheers 👍

I've done this. I don't have any dimensions or templates though unfortunately, as all I did was cobble loads of bits of cardboard together and trim it until it fit, then used that to cut the steel. Hopefully these images help. Also worth noting that mine is the actual bulkhead, not just a cover, as I cut away the original and seam welded this one in. I also did this with the engine out of the car before the respray.
