Cal, I also had a problem with the windscreen bowing outward from the
cabin frame. here's a link to a picture of what I did.

Basically I used some clamps, some clecos and some scrap .062 alum
'fingers' to hold it in place.
As to the Gap on the bottom of the windscreen, I'm not sure that it's
too critical, as the windscreen is held in place primarily by the
fiberglass layups that lay over this and the upper fwd fuse. You will
fill the gap with flox, and obvioudly the smaller the gap the les there
is that will seep inside and need to be cleaned/removed.

the right and left sides of the upper forward fuse top? My windshield
curve does not exactly match the curve and I am hesitant to trim
more. What is an allowable gap around the windshield bottom?
