Fitting under hood

The Kirkham engine mounts are little taller than original, you might be able to gain something there (make your own) you can also mill the carb mounting flange and gain some there. If you have a hood scoop you can use some of that real estate to fit a custom air cleaner. I have a hood scoop and am partially into that area with my air cleaner, but I have a 1" Wilson spacer on the manifold along with their throttle body, I am pretty sure the total height is greater than a Holley carb. Check out their engine mounts they are a great design just too tall. I'll measure the distance between my china wall and the edge of the body that would be flush with the hood and send it to you tonight. |
