Hood Clearance
« on: May 10, 2013 - 05:58:33 PM »
Has anyone used an Indy 360-3 intake on a40 in a 1973 Cuda with a bulge hood? I will be using multiport injection, so there will be a throttle body on top instead of a carb. intake looks pretty tall. I am afraid it might not clear the hood. Is anyone using this setup?
Thanks

dont know, but I agree, looks tall, and with an EFI then air cleaner, my bet is no,
unless you get maybe a drop base air cleaner bottom.
these guys have them
