Hey that's my hood. I just got that hood on my car. I doubt it will clear your ZC though. It it barely clearing my D16.

you can make it fit, I got my ZC to fit without taking the cam cover off, When the engine was put it it was shimmed down on the drives side using some 1/8" washers, and it fit fine.

since the motor is not in your car yet... you can do the same thing.

i would not put more than 2 because it may trought the axel angle out of whack, so far 1 has not caused a problem, the nice thing is if too low or causes problems you can teke em out.

you can do one washer and take the timing cover off, that should give you the space you need for it to fit.
