Limited hood clearance!
I am currently using a 428 police interceptor manifold in my car because of limited hood clearance. It is the same height as the cast iron 428 manifold. Is there another manifold with a similar height and better performance I could use?
|
I have a Blue Thunder on my 514. THey have a web site you can check out.

Blue Thunder is too high, I have one on my other car! How tall is the Sidewinder compared to the Ford PI or the 428 CJ for that matter?
|
I think the PI intake will be as good as it gets with your hood clearance issues.
|
Has anybody actually measured the difference in hight between let say a PI manifold, a Sidewinder, a CJ, and maybe a Blue Thunder and Edelbrock PM.
This would be good info for everybody to use instead of speculation. Thanks, |
it all depends on which company replica you have. I've got the blue thunder with 2 750 holleys with k & n filters on both got 1 and half clearance from hood
|
Actually, I mean from the base of the manifold, This is for an original AC Automobile. It originally came with a cast iron 428 manifold, I installed a PI manifold, and it is a 1/4 inch from the hood, I am looking for something aluminum, ford with bigger port than the PI.
