Depends on the intake and air cleaner. You can stick a normal intake and a 4" air cleaner with a drop base under a stock hood.
A normal intake would be something like an Edlebrock Performer.

Thanks. I finally get back on track this weekend. I'm hoping for a 9 second timeslip with no major breakage. My goal this year is a 9.7x uncorrected at altitude 1/4 mile run at around 135 mph.
