Putting the engine tin back on. Have it all screwed on except there is a problem by the intake. It a bit low on the left side by about 1/8 ". Took it off and tried twice. should I just dremel of the overlapping tin and call it a day. or pull it all apart and try again.

I've had this problem a few times. Just trim off the part that overlaps the intake flange. Ray

Once you install the screw (all the way left in your pic). then just trim off whatever encrouches onto the intake mounting flat.

Heavy tin snips work good for this, Dremel if you have a steady hand...

It should not have to be trimmed. It just needs to be repositioned slightly. It appears to too far to the right, or the rear if I'm seeing correctly. Loosen the screws and move it toward the front of the car.

Did it fit before? If so, what changed?
If it used to fit, i wouldn't be so quick reaching for the dremel ...
