The bonnet will fit, it will need one hell of a power bulge though!

I think the pics at a funny angle I've change air filter and bonnet fits fine 25mm to spare A standard injection unit will fit as well I'm running it with a Eldelbrook manifold with is quite high Some other manifolds would save me an inch It's a 4.6 and I'm ruunig it through the type 9 box 5oo miles in and it's still going strong (fingers crossed)
