Match drilled 8 holes in Inlet Baffles to finish installation per Sect 47-29, Steps 1-4. Test fit onto Fuse/Engine Baffle system -- very satisfying to see great fit. Contoured the outboard corners of Top Cowl epoxy/flox mix creating smooth transitions while matching Bottom Cowl. Several iterations - grind off some, check alignment Top to Bottom at corners...repeat. Relieved turned out well -- Whew ! ...and Yay!
