Ken and listers,
If you are shy some hood clearance you can gain about half an inch adopting
the ram air base that I built for my car with the LAT glass hood and the RPM
Performer Edelbrock manifold (Same height as the F4B). I used it with a 750
Holley DP so with your Holley it would work great. Not sure why yours is
lousy as mine has always been quite acceptable. Couple more Jet sizes and I
should 360 HP at the rear wheels. The Ram Air base works very well and
permitted me to run a FULL 2 inch tall 14 inch diameter standard K&N filter
(I used a Summit version) with absolutely NO hood rubbing issues. In fact I
could go another quarter of an inch and I might just try it. Those that saw
it at Dyno Daze here in so cal noted that it does not look that bad and it
works GREAT for that Raaaaam Air effect while driving.
If you have any questions shoot me a line.
I could sell you a template for about $30 bucks as I did not get much
interest in producing a production run.
