I am running an M1 TR with Victor heads/RB in a 68 GTX and using a 6 Pack hood scoop, it is a tight fit at best. I also ran this combo with EBrock RPM heads. The fit was much better with the RPM heads. The Victor head raises the intake just under an inch which makes the rear carb clearance very very tight.
Airflow into the carbs is far from optimal. If I continue to run the TR next year I would like to try some different scoop configurations and see if this is a true statement.
Glad to get you some measurements when I can get back to the garage.
I would also note that an Indy-TR/RB combo would not fit and a Wieand TR/RB combo will not fit. Either of these on a low-deck has a chance but not on an RB.
68 GTX, 9.38 at 144, Best Machine 540..
