Gotcha. I love the sound of the LTs thoLT vs. LT yeah, I would also go with the larger diameter.
The crux of what I'm getting at with blown combos is that the difference is so negligible that the simplicity of shorties make them the best option.
For an N/A car that benefits from good exhaust scavenging, LTs are the hot ticket.
If you already own the LTs then hell yeah! Use them!
Ford Racing Z2363 Crate Engine Build

I was looking for something on YouTube with a z2363 and a supercharger and also googled something but I don't see where someone has done it and put a blower on it. Did you ever research and found anything?
Hello, new member here. Sorry to jump in your thread @Habu135, but maybe what I get done can help you as well. Was reading through this thread because I am looking to changing out some things on my car. It currently has a Holley Sniper 2 and I am going terminator X. I am trying to figure out what intake I can fit on my Ford Z2363. The valve covers are tall so I am guessing these are the ones to go with from reading this thread? How much more clearance do they offer?
I am not crazy about the looks of the Holley Systemax style, I would rather have a Holley Hi-ram side mount type. If that is wrong or wouldn't work please let me know. I am going to get a 2.5" cowl hood installed as well.

I currently have a Trickflow R Series intake on it. However, many have told me I'm leaving horsepower on the table and have since purchased, but not installed, a Trickflow Box R intake.Hello, new member here.

I'm currently running a Terminator X and am happy with it. I went back and forth about different valve covers, but am happy with the flat black non descript ones which came on the engine from Ford.
I have a stock height fiberglass hood with no underside cross bracing. I wanted to maintain the OEM look and the no underside cross bracing frees up some height. While the Box R is approximately one inch taller than the R-Series, I'm currently running a spacer and suspect the height will be nearly the same without the spacer on the Box R. If the Box R does rub the underside of the hood, I plan to have it machined down a bit.
Good luck and check out my progress thread below. It has a lot more info.

Oh so you left the valve covers alone and put a spacer in and the Trickflow R fit? Good to know.
Have you seen anyone put a supercharger on that crate engine?I currently have a Trickflow R Series intake on it. However, many have told me I'm leaving horsepower on the table and have since purchased, but not installed, a Trickflow Box R intake.

Does some of the OEM hoods come with no cross bracing? I know my 96 to 98 Cobra Hood has cross bracing...I currently have a Trickflow R Series intake on it. However, many have told me I'm leaving horsepower on the table and have since purchased, but not installed, a Trickflow Box R intake.

No. Turbocharged are currently popular. Neomustangs has a turbocharged 363. And I believe War Admiral is a turbocharged 363. My car should make around 420 once I install the new intake and add some more timing. It's a handful now through third gear with 400 rwhp.
