Close, only 3 1/2.

The Whipple's added a lot more height to the engines than I was lead to believe. I was told they added two inches to the height. Later I found out that's on the 502 engines. The 454's get more like six. It took a bit of thought but it worked out.

Not really. I bought this boat because the Check was too fast & too big for my wife. Sometimes you have to compromise.
