Lose the engine cover. That will buy you somewhere around 1.5", and maybe a hair more if you shave your oil fill cap. It'll also remove a pound of dead weight.

The engine cover's primary purpose is cosmetic, and for me, it fails at that. I'd rather look at a valve cover and a PCV system than an IMA badge. If I liked IMA badges, mine's coming unglued from the engine cover anyway, and I could glue it to the valve cover.
