A request for measurements

Can someone measure the distance from the front of their nose to the front of the scuttle for me?





How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

The bonnet on my MAC1 was 980mm in length..............

ETA - which obviously means that Locosts/MK's etc will all be the same at around 1metre or ever so slightly under...
