Mike, this chassis is pretty compact and the place where this can is located has very little additional room.

I have another IF transformer coming that I think has a smaller dia set of coils on it that hopefully will fill the bill. Are we having fun yet... 8)
Now that you mention it though... the plate that the can is mounted on also covers the tuning capacitor and frame. I might be able to raise that plate some with some standoffs to give myself a little more room if I had to. There is probably another inch or so of room if I did that. I'll try the coil that is coming and if that doesn't work out will go to the KCMike plan B.
