Before working on the installation of the FAB, I have to cut the scoop on the lower cowl. It had been fabricated a tad too long. The idea is to have a 1/4' gap between the rear edge of the scoop and the forward edge of the FAB. After some work with a cutting disk, this is the result.
I then rivet the seal at the front. I used some proseal to get the seal to conform to the corners.
I then bolted the injection body to the engine and installed the FAB upper plate. The four bolts are installed with star washers and are safety tied. It would be a pity if one of them were to travel through the injection body to the engine.
