How much different is the underside of the VIS hood ? I can fit a W/A intercooler under the hood.. Could you take some pics ?
Are you sure its mounted correctly ? (engine and hood)



--------------------

I will return one day.

the engine is mounted correctly, at first the hook used to lift the engine was bent too hight and it would keept the hood from closing, but i was able to bend it back. Now when i put the top mount on it still wont close. Im pretty sure its on correctly because all of its screws match up with the correct holes. Ill try to get pics in tomorrow.
