Hood Clearance w/406

I was wondering if a 406 with a Victor Jr. intake and a Holly 4150 will fit under the hood of my IROC? I have seen that the Performer RPM intake fits, but I haven't found any info about the Victor Jr. Thanks.

I don't have a victor jr, but I am using a holley street dominator, Its a high rise dual plane, Its almost 2 inches taller than a stock intake. I'm guessing its close to the JR's height. I am running a 1.5 in dropbase aircleaner and I am still about 1/2 inch above the hood, on the front side of the aircleaner. I'd have to guess it wont fit. But it is only a guess.
