If the forward facing flange was just a 1/4 to 1/2 inch higher it would seat the forward portion of the tube lower in the engine bay and would keep this rubbing issue from occurring. If not, at least post something disclosing the fact that this may happen and that it might be a good idea to shave down your hood bracket during installation. Anyway, now I've got a ground down hood bracket and a one week old pipe with a big gouge in it.
