um, why do all that if you are selling it? or is the for sale in your sig for a different car?

i had a 1.7L KB, no blowzilla though, under my 96-98 cobra hood. only problem was a small spot where the pulley at the end of the snout touched. it was an easy fix.

i am going to guess a blowzilla would fit

I dont know of anyone who has one on a SN95, some of the guys I know had them on their 99-03's and had the stock hood but Im not sure if it works for ours as well. I imagine it would, might have to remove the liner or something though.

Well my. 2.1L Blowzilla does

According to the install instructions there are two clearance issues

First KB says that you have to notch out a a small section of the hood center rib. Mine cleared so I didn't do that

Secondly, KB says the hood blanket needs to be removed. There is a clearance issue on the snout pulley so I just cut out a section (4"x4") of the blanket at that location

So yes it does fit under a stock hood

Is this what you had in mind?





I didn't take pictures of the cut out but can if you want to see them.

The pulley size is whatever KB sent with the kit. It's a 6 psi setup.

The assembly with the snout can be rotated 180*. My guess is there are different placements of the snout for different engines configurations for the 2.1 L unit.
