I am starting to think 1 inch is too much. But 1/4 or 1/2 is very reasonable.

I'm also in agreement with to that it might be an option to modify underhood bracing

If it was mine, I would be working on other things until I "got to that point". That way, you're not doing anything unnecessary. Just a thought.
