about 1 1/2" from top of carbs to the underside of the hood scoop




EFI is shorter than carbs!

P.S. I like your intake. Is this a street car or for race?

And this is in an A-body, which has less room than the B/E cars.

doing fuel injection with that manifold gets rid of allot of the drawbacks it has. Do you have it running yet?

got most of the wiring done in the engine compartment, although I want to hide the changes the Denso alternator and ready to run distributor will require. Still need the wiper motor but it should be here this month. Next weekend I'll jack it up and start exhaust, brake and fuel lines
