Default 16v folks - measurement request

Anybody with a 16v turbo (or regular 16v I suppose)...

I would like to know how high the intake manifold or fuel rail (or whatever the highest point on the engine is) sticks up, as measured with a tape measure between where the manifold bolts onto the cylinder head (bottom of intake flange), at the front of cylinder/runner #1.

To clarify, stick the end of a tape measure between the intake manifold and the upper radiator hose elbow and measure the vertical height of the intake manifold/fuel rail.

My measurement on an engine on a stand shows about 4.5" but I would like a more accurate "in-situ" measurement if possible.

Here's a SFR 16V turbo intake on an S2 head. If you need something more specific let me know.

George delivers! Thanks.

Aaron, how high does the "plenum" stick up there? really 5"?
