66 Dart Owners thread

Hey all..... Got my motor and trans in the car and found a small (huge) problem. The hood doesn't fit :-(

I put a 318 with the TF727 Trans, Holley Carb and Mopar Performance Air Cleaner (the black one with the brushed stripes). Seems to be about an inch or so to high.

Anyone know of a way out? maybe an aftermarket cowl hood. I really don't want to cut this one and weld in a cowl if I can avoid it.
