Default Out of the loop...big loop...H2B

So I've been seeing a lot of 'H2B' in topics but never looked at them. Finally did a search today to see what it was all about.

And I must say that I'm now I'm interested. I checked out this link...

...but wondering to any that have this, what did you do for more hood clearance? I saw the spacers that make the hood pop up an inch or so, but IMHO, that's one of the ugliest things I've seen done. Is anyone cutting their hood? Easier to use a CF hood?...or another FG hood?

There are some people that cut the hood and made it look stock in the hybrid section so check there. as for the hood spacers i agree that it looks a bit funny. but when i pop my hood no one laughs.

Would you rather space the engine down? I did, my oil pan is 3" off the ground. But hey, my hood will sit stock if I use a different PCV valve.

Evolution kit sits the engine in a more "user friendly" location.
The QSD kit keeps the trans is the stock oem location.

The QSD H2B kit came out at a time when everyone was snapping axles with their H22 swaps, This is why the 100% oem location is kept.

I put spacers between my trans and mount with spherical washers to make up the difference.
