Yeah, very fun reading. You'll learn a lot!

totaleclipse_05, what's the hump called? Like a technical term for it. I ran across it a while back but don't remember for sure what it called. I know that it's there to clear the timing belt on a 4G63 but don't remember for sure what it's called.

I always thought it was the "Power Hump" as well. I didn't think there was an official word for it.

I dont think there IS an OFFICIAL term, we'd have to contact the MITSU/Chrysler/EAGLE designers and ask, but as far as I know they called it the power hump aswell emoji

As for Convex/Concave, it all really depends on what perspective you are looking at it, now the subject at hand being 2gnts... and the hood always being open I'de beg to differ emoji
