FE intake for smooth hood?
Bob, in a discussion with Peter this am, he stated that a stock Ford mid-riser would fit, and the Edelbrock and Blue Thunder would both need appx .25" milled off. Can you confirm? Is there an off-the-shelf aluminum 1x4 FE intake that doesn't need to be machined? Or is there a particular air cleaner that avoids the problem?
Thanks and regards, Sam |
Sam, contact Chuck Brandt. He's a member here and has his own webpage.
www.chuckbrandt.com He's got an ERA with a street hood...no scoop. He's running a 390 with an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake and I don't recall him mentioning anything about modifications. |
Brent's right, Performer RPM. I did go through quite a bit of air cleaner combos though.

ahhhh, yes, Chuck. It has been a few months since I read through your website. Excellent source of info that I am sure to refer to again and again.
Many thanks for your effort in creating that website for all of us! Sam |

Yes I think you would have more clearance with the H&S aircleaners.

I have the original aluminum PI intake that fits under the no-scoop hood with a 14" air cleaner and K&N filter, n o problem.
