I got a TFS street heat and with the fox covers i have it wouldn't fit so i ordered the 1in spacer to be sure they would clear well looking at the intake the other night i noticed that even without the spacer my hood sits on my intake i have the cobra r with svo scoop hood was wondering if anybody else has had this problem i'm planing on cutting the hood to make it fit cause its the inside part and you won't see it unless you look in the scoop or the hoods up i was thinking about cutting both sides and using bondo or something to make it look like its suppose to be like that if anybody has done this I would love to see pics to see how it turns out.

The spot it hitting is where the rectangle hole is on the driver side i'll try to post a pic to show you what i maen but last time i tryed posting a pic it didn't show up
 
I have the TFS Track Heat and I had to go with a 3/8" phenolic spacer to clear the valve covers with the TB. It didn't quite clear the stock hood. I had to take a notch out of the rib running straight up and down.
You'll likely have more problems with the 1" spacer. See if you can get away with the 3/8" spacer.
