Credit card fitment

Would you mind if I rip off your picture, or maybe change the title of this thread? There have been MANY times I wished I had this exact picture when members ask how much room there is in a swapped engine bay. It would be easier to search for something like Water Pump/Engine Clearance to Inner Fender in a Beta Swapped LC1 Accent than to remember "credit card fitment!"
P.S. that looks a bit close but it's much better than actually hitting the fender!

You may rip it off as you please, I'm sure it'd help someone. This is with an alpha transmission, three slotted mounts, and stock axles undoubtedly under some funky loads. In an LC of course.
X3s have far more room because human life cost less than fuel did back in the early 90s - the chassis rails are far skinnier.
