Leaking oil, needs an intake gasket...Edelbrock time?

So I have a 1" drop base Elite air cleaner on it already, and the #3704 manifold from Edelbrock is .25" taller than stock...

I assume it'll fit under my hood? Thanks to anyone who can help...I need to order this ASAP!

I have a .172 drop base with 2 13/16" filter on stock manifold....and it still fits under my stock camaro hood....but I do now have a 2.5" Daytona Hood.

Just if you do have a problem get the 1.25" drop base...to take up that extra .25" from the new intake. They are like $20 for an air cleaner base.

I was running a non drop base 14x3" air cleaner and had no problems with clearance, stock hood.
