may have to trim the "ribs" from the hood to get it to fit. Did cody make this specifically for an EF/CRX?

spoon93

No it wasn't made especially for the ef that's where I went wrong but I'll figure something out hopefully I like this manni. If anyone ha pics of there's please post em up a well thanks

I'm gonna cut the ribs on the hood forsure.. but not sure if that will be enough I know there's gotta be others that went through this same ordeal

Put enough washers in the front and back of hood to clear the manifold

i originally bought a ramhorn for my ef then we had the ame issue so i got a pfab log, and made great power from it

now im on a redline topmount and fits like a glove

my original plan was to cut slots in my hood for the ramhorn to work, but my shop talked me out of it lol

Cut ribs on my hood.
I have alot of fitment issues in the crx though. project for several years.
Maybe try sir style but probably need to cut ribs also
