I believe it's because I have a factory JE pump and they are set back from the mfg. It was made like that. Thanks, I like it too. Looks clean.

Spoke to Paul today, great that he keeps me updated. D0VE-A stage one block still doing good. Passed a sonic test with flying colors. Will have the test sheet with the block. Looking forward to this build.
