Hood clearance on other than stock intakes


Recommended Posts

Just wanted to post up my latest intake, so you guys have ideas of what we can use. This is a GMPP ls7 intake with the 6061.com LSX elbow on it. It clears the stock hood without issues. (quite a bit more room, possibly 2" of space)

Who's engine mounts are you using? I have JCI mounts and I don't think that set-up would clear my hood. It looks like it's 3-4" higher than a stock LS1 intake manifold.

JCI. It is 3-4" higher than an ls6, but only in the center, where the stock hood is significantly higher than that.

Now how about if you have a throttle body coming forward, and a 3 inch pipe off of it do you still have clearance forward? Does look really cool as it sits.

Not sure. I go home tomorrow, so I'll see if I can figure it out

The mid rise im pretty sure, but I can't confirm if it will clear the hood latch as I cut it off. I am also using hawks mounts to. Sorry about the pictures being sideway. The last picture is with the edelbrock high rise intake.
