Quote: It's a tight fit. Only about a half inch clearance to the hood in few spots. I run a poly lock mount on the driver side--you want LIMITED motor movement!
Had to mod the support bracket on top too,in order to clear the Holley bowl vents
For those embarking on this base with me, I highly recommend contacting Schumacher and buying his motor tie down, or at least his motor mounts. Its tight and if you have a motor mount start to go bad on you, your air cleaner will slap the underside of the hood. I had this happen on my Cuda with a different setup when an old mount went bad. Now I run the poly lock mounts AND the motor tie down. Its not as rough a ride as people tell you. I hardly notice it, and kinda like the firmness.
