Scattershield Clearance Issues

Thanks for the heads up. This is just me, but if I had a problem like that, I would consider drilling a hole through the fire wall to install the bolts. Then fill them with rubber or plastic plugs. I can appreciate doing things correctly, but my car is not a show car. Must feel good to have that protection there, huh? I was just watching on t.v. a burnout competition and was thinking of all those people standing around watching, and remembered the blown up trans pics in this forum. Spooky.
