All the old posts pictures dont work.
I have a gsr using a efb2 kit from hasport and im going to use the sheet of plastic with paint method to figure out where to cut the hood.

But I cant take any chances as the valve cover is candy painted and need to be sure that it wont hit while the engine moves while driving

Please post a picture of where you cut your hood and whether it rubs AT ALL now.
Thanks for any help!!

 

I use those mounts with my B16A and I have no problem whatsoever, and I drive it hard.....

 

I won't clear even if you cut all the webbing out. Mine still rubs on the front right corner (next to the timing cover) with no webbing and washers.

PS: I have hasport mounts

 

i have a b18c in my crx,mine rub as well i cut out the webbing and it still rub so i went and got me a edm hood (zc)

 

with all the webbing cut on a stock usdm hood mine rubbed, so I got a metal zc hood and a SIR style CF hood which both clear, but with the ZC hood i had to cut a bit of webbing (it lines up with the fenders and bumper much better).

What answer are you looking for? You either need to get a different hood or shim it WAY up.

 

still ust asking for the picture so I know where to start and end the cuts... Ill shim it up too anyways

 

put some painters tape on the Valve cover if you are afraid of scratching it.

 

Hood space won't work with a B18?
