Well for those who may be interested, I contacted Barry Grant and they assured me that the inclination of the intake will not be a significant problem for the carburetor or fuel delivery. They also directed me to Transdapt ( tdperformance.com )for spacers with an 8* incline if I wanted to mount it backwards in an attempt to level out my Edlebrock RPM intake.

Apparently this incline is to compensate the nose rise on acceleration to keep the carb level. Interesting.

I am building a street beast with no plans for race/strip. I think for now I will leave it alone and see how it goes. Who knows maybe I'll get bored and head for the track!

Thanks a lot Mike, Ernie and True. I appreciate the insight.
