pretty much. thats why if you have to get new mounts regardless of in a coupe or hatch or vert, its good to get vert mounts.

He's got a 1" spacer on his intake Roundy. You may need to remove that spacer dude. I think that's where you clearance problem is coming from.

BTW, how's the Stang running with the new timing, lots better I hope!
