Hey Guys,
Can anyone give some advice about drilling out the spot welds on the cowl of my 72. When I drill it goes through the lower cowl and the fire wall flange also. Is this OK. Trying to get through just the upper cowl is hard to do. What is the acceptable practice?
Also what is the best way to get the upper cowl to peel off after drilling? The firewall lip is directly in the way so a flat chisel can't be put into the front seam w/o bending the snot out of the firewall flange.
