I had anticipated that it would be hard to drill through the stainless firewall. When I drilled for my motor mounts I had installed the fiberfax and stainless to the firewall and then clamped the false firewall to the real firewall. I marked the points to drill and was suprised to find how easy it was to drill through the stainless. I think having it clamped between wood helped the drill to punch through by not lettung the stainless to dimple. You may want to try this on a piece of scrap stainless.
