Hello everyone, did any one run into a clearance problem between the spark arrester and the hatch. The boat is a 86 18ft. classic and has 01 350 mag mpi the arrester seems large and i would hate to cut the hatch to put a scoop in. Can,t get the stud for the arrester out not sure if its pressed or threaded ,does any one know of a low profile spark arrester or how to get the stud out the arrester needs to come down one inch. Thanks Jeff

Stud screws out, mark it with magic marker before you take it out so you get right length bolt.

The engine hatch on our 18 has a raised center section to provide extra height clearance for the engine. It came from the factory like that. So you might want to look into modifying your engine hatch.
