Hi Bob, 

We always run some slow setting seam sealer right across the top of the
bulkhead surface and back from the front bulkhead corners back to the area
where the windscreen stanchions will seat. We also run a bead around each
demister vent aperture, then set the shroud and press into final position
and fasten as required.

We're getting ready to re-fit the front shroud to our BN2. I know there
should be seam sealer--'dumdum' or similar--along the cowl to prevent heat
and gasses from the engine compartment from getting into the cockpit. Does
anyone have a photo or diagram of where the seam sealer should go, how thick
it should be, etc? I know this was discussed a few years ago and someone had
some good photos of a 6-cyl car, and a tip about using wax paper to gauge
thickness, but was wondering what's correct for a 100? 

TIA, 
Bob
