It will not obstruct airflow enough to cause any issues. I wouldn't worry about this at all.

Why? The instructions say to cut it with a Dremel. A reciprocating saw is little quicker is all. Either way, you gotta cut it.

Ahh.... yeah, I guess you have a point. I shall try harder next time.

Or I could've used a shotgun. Now THAT would've been entertaining!

Yeah. I just lurk there. Different screen name though; someone else is already using 'semtex', so I registered as 'bowlclogger'.
