SGR like yours, the top of my firewall seems warped forward. One thing I have noticed is that if I take a straight edge on run it across the firewall and the two bars on the cowl, they all line up.
You mentioned that you had to push the top of the firewall back to get it to line up. I tried pushing the top of mine back and it's not giving... Would you post a pic of what firewall against the lip of the body looks like?

Thinking about it, would pushing the slanted top of the firewall back effectively lift the body off of the cowl?

Thanks.

Hey WS,
Here are some pics of my firewall and body. If you look close, there is a chip in the gel coat on the body. This is where they initially hit due to the warped firewall. The body was sitting on top of the firewall. We had to lift the weight off of it and push the firewall rearward to get the body down.

Here is another shot. This one is looking up through the passenger side fender vent.

Let me know if this is helpful.
