6.0 intake & accesories under this hood

i may be getting a complete 6.0 with every thing for 300! although it has slight high mile. do u think that the stock 6.0 intake and accesories will fit under this hood? i plan on changing them eventually.

The intake should definitely clear. You will probably have problems with the higher mount of the alternator.

This thread should answer all your questions on the subject.

I doubt either one will fit. The cowl doesn't start far enough forward.

You could still pick up the engine and just get yourself a stock LS1 intake for the time being. I have seen them as cheap as $25 on ls1tech. Then work out something with the accessories.
