Hey guys, building a Baja right now, and I've installed a 32cc Zenoah. When putting the cage on, the stock spark plug guard/spoiler is interfering with the spark plug boot. If I get the cage fully installed, its pressing on it hard enough that it is deforming the spoiler upward. Is this normal? I looked up the dimensions of some of the previous engines that used to be included in the RTR's and they are basically identical in height.

I bought the extended roll bar that came on the 5T's, and it resolves the issue, but of course it looks dumb as hell (IMO, anyway). Surely this lack of clearance is not whats intended, right? Is there any aftermarket pieces still out there that give some clearance for the spark plug outside of the roll bar?
