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 |

I’m with Curt and Larmo, something looks off to me as well. Could just be the angle the picture was taken.
I’d also strongly suggest doing something where the wire bundle is coming through the engine shelf. There is a piece of rubber there (we call it a snorkel) that runs from the engine shelf down to the firewall. As it is now I’d be concerned that eventually the wires will chafe against that metal shelf. |
