I tried moving the dame door hinges till i was blue in the face. To get door gaps good, it still hits, so i think i need to just do a bit of "massaging" to that one area, ie. cut and lower that section just a bit. Comments?
(see pic with black wore off)
If exterior visual door gaps look good to you, massage the inner portion as needed.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
