Got the body in place and roughly fitted the bonnet.
The BMW engine sits well back so the power bulge will be small, the other hole are for the dizzy cap and the radiator corners.





I was going to make a few humps to cover the "sticky-out" bits but found this on the shelf.



I think it looks the part, better than a scoop or bulge.

Looking at the two I think the Navigator bonnet has a lot more room underneath it and with hind-sight would have been the better bonnet to use on this project as I think it would have covered the whole engine with no cut-outs.
There may even be enough room under a Navigators bonnet for a V8. (the next project looms)
