Not stock hood, good thing I have a cowl hood. Also it's only 1" taller than the high rise intake with the elbow I was using.

So, that all clears your hood? It looks very cool though. NVM, Mike was faster than me.Today I decided to do some pre install mockup. I don't want to engineer this thing while bending over the engine. So I bolted the whole intake together on the work bench minus the fuel rail. Here is how it looks.now im not sure the vacuum block will fit in that spot on final install I just figured I'd toss it on. I want to paint the elbow black to match the blower before final install. I need to grab the throttle cable bracket and make sure it fits as well.... I have a 90mm TB from a Nissan Q45 I may modify the linkage on and use... or this elbow accepts a TB from an LS engine it may be simpler to mod that. Either of these options will delete the iac..... anyone have a accufab TB lying around?
The fuel rail will require removing the valve covers to pull... But given the size of the blower and my need to use the hold downs to position the rails it couldn't be helped. I'm excited to see if my measurements are correct. I realllllly hope it all fits!
Oh yeah I also need to tap the elbow for my meth nozzle.

Will stock style intake gaskets be ok or do I need to grab something special?
I noticed that, but if that throws flames outside the engine compartment steve will not be happy.As if... Scroll up.
It would instead require the need for a dust pan and a broom to sweep up the small engine pieces that escape the pan.Hmmm...... That would negate the need for watermeth
Oh it's gonna be higher than that by the time you get your inlet piping plumbed in. Scoops are made to cover the need for holes in hoods..Cut a perfect clearanced hole for whatever sticks through the hood like the drag racers do for the same reason. If you don't like the thing popping it's eyes out of the water like some sort of swamp gator, find a scoop and be done with it.I really wanted to all sit under the hood. I just got done doing some serious measurements It's about a quarter inch to tall. Figures.....
I guess I will in fact be remaking the inlet.... again
