Using the small diameter distributor cap will let the engine move forward about 5/8 inch but I still wanted more. All the original cars have a recess or indent in the rear window frame that makes more space for the distributor and permits the engine to be located even more forward. The attached picture is from the historic races at Monterey last year and shows a GT40 with the distributor indent. I decided to do a cut-out for my car but I did not want to loose any structure or strength.
