I strongly recommend against that type of chassis for two redundant firewalls, I think it's better to use two short depth boxes back-to-back (with ports on the front, like supermicro 503L-200), or some type of chassis where you can at least swap the PSUs without taking both machines down. If the hardware requirements were lower something like the Yawarra cases for PCEngines alix boards aren't bad (two in a single 1U case, but they can be removed independently) but that's not going to be good for 4x1Gb.
