Flange was removed to allow module to fit on top of tunnel, and we also removed a portion of tunnel in module that was meant for sight gauge because we needed clearance for our pilot/co-pilot switch connections. Anyway this is where we want to mount port lower bracket that ties to firewall and it is just not strong enough. Resolution is a carbon fiber rod and a piece of 1/8plywood.
CF here floxed in place. Tip without wood will be 2 BID and the end with wood will also be 2 BID.
