Im in need of some advise for installing the engin cover. My book says that the engine cover should sit 1 1/2 inches lower than the top of the main body. My engine wont let me do that.

Scott I know your frustration. I just spent over a month trying to get mine figured out. The inspector was very nice. He was over twice and made several calls trying to get it done the right way.
