So I've read the threads I could find on the bilge in an F25, lot of good info on bilge pumps and such. I've got my floor open and have scraped out several pounds (!) of caked on oil and grease from under the cabin sole - 40+ years worth, pretty sure I'm the first owner to open the floor except for...

On my 1973 F-25, the capacity plate is behind the vertical helm cover under the steering wheel, where the fuse panel is.

Excellent, yes it does....Thank you!

I used Dynamat under the cockpit floor and it lowered the sound levels considerably. Before the Dynamat installation I could not hear my exhaust, only the engine noise coming through the cockpit floor.
