Cool let me know.

Also does the 1/2" spacer make anything hit the hood liner?

Walter it was on a car I had and had a fiberglass hood w/o hood liner.

I have two of those old plenum spacers stacked up together to clear a 4" inlet pipe. I think two combined is probably 3/4 inch or slightly taller with an Accufab plenum and no issues. My turbo sits up higher due to 3 bolt to 4 bolt adaptor.

To clear the hood insulator?

To clear the hood insulator?

No, since my turbo is sitting about 5/8 of an inch higher, I had a hard time clearing the 4" inlet pipe for the turbo under the intercooler up pipe. So I had to raise the plenum in order for the up pipe to clearance turbo inlet pipe. So far it doesn't touch the hood liner.

I still run the stock mounds, I don't know how much taller the motor sits with poly mounts

Ok, I got it. I measured mine last week and I will need 1 inch to clear the up pipe so the 4 inch maf pipe fits thru.

I am actually considering going a different route to ensure nothing rubs. Personally, I just have to have the hood insulator and considering they are not easy to come by (Actually pretty much impossible in a 9 hole) I need to make sure it's not gonna rub. And the H&R mounts cause it to be higher as well. One fuken thing after another....

I have the same issue. 4" pipe will not clear the IC up-pipe.
