Default RV-8 with FG-14 HELP!!!

Well I screwed up... After what I thought was checking all the details I must have missed one...
I purchased a Hanger 9 RV-8 and was (and still want to) going to install the FG-14 motor in it... Long story short... It's TOO LONG>>>>>
About 3/4" total..... Now I figure I will have to either cut the firewall and shorten it by 3/4" or somehow lenghten the cowling by that 3/4"...
Anyone have any ideas??? I'd like to keep the FG-14,, I think that will be a fantastic motor for this plane...
Now that I own both items now what???
