If you put K-member spacers on you can get the engine lower in the body and drop the required hood height..

I was told your combo fit with just 4 inches of hood. Mine will be very similar.

Mine is barley 2" above the hood line but it did have a short intake on it and the motor is way low in the car.

It'll have a super vic and dominator on it when it comes out so I'll be changing hoods as well.

I like to have about 1.5 -2" from the bottom of the hood to the carb I;ve seen alot of cars speed up by opening up that gap... something people don't seem to think about.

No super victor for my car. Its gonna run out of steam before I could get the potential of that intake. Stock rods dont like high r's. We are putting it together with junk and spare parts. Literally every part so far has been donated or swapped for. I could use your input so if you have any advice or insight, just shoot me a pm.

Thanks.
