Hi fellas,

I bought my car just a about a month ago, and am in the process of refreshing it in terms of general PM, tuning, and authenticity. I'm heading in the pure street style direction(no side pipes, no scoop, no stripes, no bar), and am currently mulling over what to do with my engine in terms of it's height in the frame - it sticks up about 1-2 inches above the hood plane. What I think I have is a 428CJ (C6ME, 352 stamp) block with iron heads, a C3AE-H 427 low rise intake and a holley 750 1x4 carb setup.

Part of me would like to get the height down so I can use a solid hood, a la' steet style, and I'm thinking a blue-thunder mid-rise intake would get me there... but I have come up with the following questions for the group:

Questions:
- Is there anything particulary good or wierd about the build I have?
- In terms of street style authenticity, other than 2x4's, am I headed in the right direction?

Thanks ya'll,

David
