RV10 Engine Mount close to Asheville, NC or Huntsville, Al

Anybody close to Asheville, NC or Huntsville, AL with and uninstalled RV10 engine mount that I could come by and trace the mount pads on a cardboard pattern?

I am trying to create a pattern to be used to cutout ceramic cloth for heat\fire protection. My finish kit is on order but not due for two months.

Thx

Steve
 
That's what I did

and it works great! Sorry I'm not closer - and I just torqued the mount on last weekend :D

You will like how the Fibrefrax and stainless foil turns out. Very happy I did mine. Only one finger slice and no mechanical or cosmetic issues (except wiping the blood off the plane).

Watson Aero in Louisville,GA has one that they use on a test stand. They have a website.

Is this the preferred method for firewall heat treatment? Does it come in one piece? Source?
Thanks!
