Can someone with a Chevvy Heatercore, and a Shroud do a quick measurement for me?
I'm in the following predicament -
I am looking at trading for a Chevvette Heatercore (of the 'DTEK ProCore' breed), but am not sure if it will fit the upper blowhole in my case once shrouded.
I need a measurement fairly quickly, so I can decide
I am worried about the extension of the shroud/Heatercore over the very edge of the hole in the shroud made for a 120mm fan.
See the below diagram (periods are spacers, please ignore them)

.................|..| <------------ The extension space I'm worried about
I only have about an inch (a little less) of extra space around my 120mm blowhole (cut for a BIX), and I'm worried that the shrouded Heatercore won't fit the hole, due to the back of the case.
If th extension *is* longer than about an inch, does anyone happen to know where I could buy a 'slanted' shroud for the chevvy, which would allow it to fit?
