The height of the short Ritter intake from the flange to flange (head flange to carb flange) is 7 inches. I needed 3 1/2 inches to the bottom of the scoop on a 66 Bbody using the TTI mounts. I would say it will be close. The motor will want all the height you can get to make max power. My experience is the taller the intake the more power/torque you will make. Of course your combination may vary.
