Magnum Intake on LA engine?

Drilling new holes in the head might be the best choice for 66+ small block heads (45 deg bolt holes). If so, stuff many rags and use a shop vac, so no chips get in the engine. If you remove the heads for this operation, it might be smarter to just install Magnum heads.

I don't think there is an easy way to mount the throttle body in front. Hood clearance is a concern. Seems my hood will just close w/ the Magnum "hat" on there, or an aluminum after-market one. One might use later thinner motor mounts to gain 1", but the later p.s. pump might then touch the K-frame.
