      Rear Bulkhead

      I saw this picture somewhere on here and copied it awhile back. Since I have to close off the back and the F-body has that funky bow to the braces I was thinking about doing something similar.
      It should pass tech I'd assume?
      What gauge do you think? 22ga steel?

      Originally I was planning on riveted aluminum, but the smaller amount of steel is only slightly heavier than fully skinned aluminum. Another plus I think would be no or fewer rattles?

      22 may be a bit light and oil can if you don't put some sort of rib in it

      That is a pic from my car. It is 22 gauge. NHRA requires 24 gauge.
