stock hood clearance?

Anyone know how much clearance there is between the stock hood and the intake manifold? Can't seem to find the info anywhere....Don't really know how to measure it either, even if I did have my car atm..

Re: stock hood clearance?

I could probably go outside and guestimate it if you'd like. My throttle body is off so you wouldn't get an exact measure, but I kinda know where it sits and how high-ish.

I can tell you that a Vic. Jr, or a performer RPM will fit. With a Holley carb. I had to remove the padding under the hood though. Watch the air filter stud too, if your running a carb. Dont know if that helps,but its all I got. lol
