Pat, What I did was keep try fitting the inner-to-outer cowl piece in place. I actually cut out more than needed (along the joint between the rear and outer part of the piece) and had to weld in a bit more steel to fill the gap that I made after getting the fit correct. Most of my cutting was vertically, and I tried quite a few positions of rotation (bottom fixed and top moved back and forth) to get the fit how I liked it. There were wide beads on the inner-to-outer piece that were there to fit around the beads in the inner (kick) panel. That was one of my biggest headaches.
