Looks good! How do you like it? I'm running a Vortec Headed 350 with the cc Qjet setup, with a Comp 270HR cam, Edelbrock Performer, headers, catback, etc etc. I like how you kept the cowl setup. I sold mine and went with open element, because my aircleaner base was destroyed and was pretty ugly, otherwise I woulda kept it.

I love it It reminds me of my buddies '02 LS1 T/A, this cam really comes on hard, about 4300 rpm, and climbs like crazy, all the way to redline and beyond I couldn't be happier, and it has just the right amount of rumble at idle

By the way, the air cleaner lid does, just make contact with the hood
But it IS nice to still have the 1983 version of Ram Air
