try a search, IIRC the edelbrock one will not work on ours, but there are some out there.

I have the hotchkis one and it fits nice. Whatever STB you buy, it has to come up high enough to clear the intake.

I have an Edelbrock TPI on the Camaro but have been told they do not fit a Firebird hood.

The edlebrock one hit my stock hood. We even lowered the tower mounts adn I still had issues. I think the BMR would be a better choice. It definately clears the engine... I have the Suncoast hood and it is a bit lower then stock and I rub on the BMR brace!

Oh i forgot to add that I have the RAM-air 2 hood which has a 3 inch cowl or so so maybe thats why I have no issues, but I doubt it will rub with a stock hood.
