Default Question? Cosworth spacer with GTM stage5

Sorry for SUCH a NOOB question, but I been searching and cant find the answer. I have a GTM stage5 being install on my 2005 350Z and spacers have been install to raise the engine to clear the turbos and Im thinking if I use the cosworth spacer it will hit the hood. Does anyone know if this is tru? or can I get by not using it?

The Cosworth spacer is used with the Cosworth intake. This is done so larger, after market injectors can fit with the Cosworth intake. No Cosworth intake, no need for Cosworth spacer.

BTW: spacers to raise the engine???

Guess I have no choice but to use the cosworth spacer also.

Thank you for the answer

I think you should have lots room. I don't have the motor mount spacers but with the cosworth spacer I can still fit a strut tower brace so you have a good 2" before the motor mount spacers, and the cozi spacer is required with most if not all after market rail and injector set ups.
