Hi X,

To be honest, we won't know until we clearance the hood. The blown 4.6 is rather large. The bulge could be anywhere from 1/2" to 4". If I were to guess I would say that the bulge is going to be about 1" or so.

How much clearance should we alow for engine movment? I was thinking that if we had 1/4" to 1/2" we would be fine, but my brother says that the engine could move as much as 1/2". If he is right we would need about 3/4" around all components to make sure the engine does not hit when it tourqes over.

What do you think???

Bob
