Edelbrock RPM manifold - hood clearance question
«

I'm thinking about putting an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake on my 71 383 Challenger R/T. I want to keep the stock dual snorkel air cleaner and I'm wondering if anyone has done this before? Has there been any hood clearance problem? I know that the Performer RPM is taller than the stock intake.
Any responses are appreciated. Thanks!

Don't know if this helps but I have a 360/408 in the 'Cuda with the bulge hood and I have to run a drop air cleaner base and low profile open top K&N to fit. The RPM Air Gap is a tall intake.

We have the cheaper performance plus version of that intake on the 340 with a demon carb and the stock air cleaner did fit. very close thou keep an eye on carb stud if you do it.

Another way to find out is go to Carlisle in a week or so and see what everybody is using...
