There is a gap between the front engine bay seal and the engine tin. The engine bay seal is new. Is this gap o.k.? Do I have to do something to make it fit better?
 Thanks, Buck |

for me I think the lip of the rubber seal is what I circled with red lines and it just need to snap it to the engine tin. It also seems that the engine was a little further (more gaps) back when it was installed or did you check if your engine mount bar is straight? I saw 2 mount bar that are bent towards the rear that makes a wider gap in that spot.
