I put a repop firewall in mine and would do it again and wouldn't have think twice about it.

The only thing I noticed with mine was the pass side under dash brace that is welded to the inside of firewall was about 3/4" to the left of where the factory one I removed was so I had to drill 2 new holes to plug weld it to the cowl...

I think it looks so much better now looking into the engine compartment and seeing the factory style flanged seams between the firewall and floorboards..

Well worth the extra few hours labor and several hundred $$ in my opinion..
