I didn't put the bulge in but I did end up loosing all but about 2 inches of the glove box. I used the Classic Auto Air Hotrod II unit. Width wise it will just fit with the fan motor almost against the kick panel and the vertical center dash brace narrowed about in half as it goes by the unit. The Hotrod I would give you some more room but it will also move less air. Mine doesn't blow you out (smaller fan and lots of duct) but boy is it cold.
