yeah that does sound tight, I'm anticipating the same problem with the bonnet stay... it looks like it could be a lot shorter and still work fine.. i spoke to allisport and they're passing my email onto the boss, but realistically what can they do anyways.. better off just getting on with it at this point i reckon.

When I fitted my allisport I/C I found the bonnet latch was whacking it. Very frustrating. I ended up getting it to fit by rejigging the mounts a little and shuffling the IC out of the way in the order of mm's.

I didnt have the aircon to deal with, which made my job easier but somedays you really miss it in the tropics lol.
I think the best solution would have been to use like race car style bonnet catches, with a ring and pin. But I wasnt sure on the legality.

good luck with it, the I/C really helps the EGTs

I had to do the same with my bonnet catch - cut it down. I sent photos and told allisport all about australian air con models and what I had to do to get it to go in 2 years ago - Looks like they took no notice:mad:
