Project 6-71 340 Demon

O.K.

In the first pic the top of the photo is the front of the intake. You can clearly see in the second pic that the left side of the plate is the front.

Here is what I am thinking. If I do have a problem with fit, dizzy wise. I can take the top plate to my machinist friend and have him drill 8 new holes to locate the blower 1/2 inch forward. These holes would take the place of the outer 8 holes that are presently there. The other thing I might do is have him cut off 3/8 of an inch from the very back of the plate. This would leave me with some overhang in the top of the plenum but I am not racing this car and not looking for every last horsepower.

What do you think? Good idea or bad?

Also, you can see that Indy new they had a problem as the back of the intake has already been shaved for clearance.
