    Also, anyone that has a fear of fire, feel free to stop by my shop sometime and look at some parts I have sitting outside. I would suggest that you use steel to seal holes in firewalls. Aluminum is pretty well pointless in a serious fire and becomes molten rather quickly. Those of us with composite body panels should be even more concerned and you F-body guys with plastic fuel lines worse still. This was a little fire compared to what CAN happen. I have seen the end result of REAL bad fire and it's scary as hell what melts completely away as if it were never there!!!!
    Ah, fugg it.
