Chris,

We had no choice but to modify the throttle body to get the bonnet to close.
However since we have done that another person we know who has a Mustang had a similar problem with the hood closing - so he lowered the engine mounts and put a holden commodore throttle body with his Mustang 5.0L motor. He had to modify a few bits and pieces to get everything to line up, but apparently the commodore throttle body is very small compared to the standard ford one.

Hey Rebel1 - just for interest sake - I can cook & wash however I work full time r un a household - you know the usual story - so I have our ironing sent out and cleaning lady comes in once a fortnight!

Cheers
Lyn
