The reason I ask is the hole in the body looks very tight to the pipes.

When I built my car I only left about 10mm clearance at the top and the bottom of the cutouts. Due to the tourque twisting the engine this was not enough clearance and the pipes touched the body.
Good job I decided to run the car before getting it painted.

AK tend to mount their engines to reduce nearly all movement except for a Little bit of torque twist so they should be fine. :thumb:
