Hi all,  

   

I'm working on assembling my engine baffles using Van's stock baffle kit on a stock IO-540.  The space behind number 6 cylinder is so small I'm wondering how to get this left aft baffle section set into the area around the left upper engine mount while at the same time tucking it behind the number 6 cylinder.  Anyone else have this problem?  In search of an idea...

IIRC, you have to do a little bot of bending/distorting of the piece to get it in there and then it fits nicely. It's quite tight getting it in, but once it's in there isn't any strain on it.

It's awkward at best.  A combination on twisting and pushing will get it on.  While I can't remember the exact procedure, once you figure it out it becomes more predictable and repeatable.  I remember being simililar level of frustration
