installed a Turbosmart BOV on my Vortech kit
I am not affiliated with turbosmart. I just want to share my experience with the kit.
Vortech SC with stock BOV: Thanks to @Amalgamo for the great deal and to @HRTROB and @DJCarbine for the info!

I thought you have the Maxflow BOV? The turbosmart really comes close to the block around the same clearance you say. Mine does not come close to the heater/radiator hose though. I'll check again tom and report back.

It's as tight as it can be! It still does that! For some reason I cannot get the damn screws to stay put!

Not yet. The screws are kinda different though, they don't have threads.

Try some fasteners from lowes or a hardware store I'm sure you could find something that will work. This is what I did.

It should sound interesting while in gear. Would like to hear running along the road in gear. It may not be a simple purge. It could be long and drawn out.

Edit: I wanted to clarify all the above is when you are out of boost. When you vent while in boost, it does make a traditional BOV noise which is louder than teh stock Vortech
