24-7 engine hatch clearance with bbc
Hello all. I'm in the process of restoring my pantera 24-7.
The boat will be a standard deck height 509 bbc with emi thunder stainless riser exhaust.
I started measuring and I'm going to have to use a low profile flame arrestor to clear the hatch, if at all.
I really want to maintain the hatch upholstery pad and not have to use a scoop.
What have you guys fit under a stock hatch with no scoop?
X dimension is 17.5 so the engine sits fairly high.
Thoughts or better yet, pictures of what you guys have fit.
Thanks, rob
