Hey Dave, Remember my problem with height and hatch clearance? Do you remember the solution? I too needed only 3-4 inches max of clearance. I also didn't want to cut the sunpad open for exterior scoops.

I had the 525SC motors with the intercoolers and I had to cut the air filter down and it was no problem, but with these motors, they are 4 inches taller

Innercoolers on the new ones also?

Yes, the new motors have the intercoolers below the 1471 blowers

Ditch the innercoolers...you'll never need those under 14-71's
