I have an eg and mine does the same thing I have two big dents on my hood but I did research and there's a thread on here where people talk about putting washers in their motor mounts to lower it. If I find it I'll post it on here!

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

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
