Well, my math eneded up just about right in my choice of intake, motor mounts, air filter, carb spacer, and carb to clear a stock hood on '67. And a little luck!?! My choice of air filter (http://www.jegs.com/i/S&B/875/78-1403-D-SS/10002/-1)is not allowing my secondary flaps to open on my Edelbrock 800. Im guessing its because I chose an open top filter?

Who is running a low prof cleaner on an Edelbrock and whatcha runnin for a cleaner to clear your stock hood??

I really hate to machine the intake down and I REALLY dont want to loose the nice lines it took to match the hood up. BLAH!
