Why not get a piece of thick walled U channel with the innder dimension
large enough to fit the bolkhead out rigger fittings. If the U is not
available then make your own from 2"x2"x1/2" angle. You could also use an I
beam I guess. Drill holes in appropriate spot, drop in the bulkhead. This
would prevent any distortion of the legs.
Plenty of people have done the galvy bulkhead without problem (Timm Cooper
and ...damm mind just went blank.) Someone just posted a link for the SU
sidedraft on a Series Rover. They had a galvy BH also.
