944S guys - measurement favor
Hi,
Wondering if anybody with a standard 944S intake manifold on their 16v car could take a measurement for me.
I am looking for the hood to manifold or hood to fuel rail clearance (whichever part sticks up highest).
If you have a piece of clay or play-doh or something like that you can make a 2" or so ball and put it on top of the manifold, and shut the hood, and open the hood and measure the compressed thickness of the ball, this gives you hood clearance.
Need to know the clearance in the middle of the manifold/rail, and at the very front end (min. hood clearance area).
Please let me know if you have good-shape or worn out motor-mounts, too, so I can factor in a few mms.
