not really. having a tube chassis I moved the engine forward a couple inches and did a custom firewall, so the seat is basically exactly where it used to be because I gained the engine clearance with a custom firewall. Guys put SBCs in 914s all the time with no cutting, but I wanted to move the engine as far forward as possible for better weight distribution. I am 57.5% rear weight now vs. almost 59% before.h
