Victor intake on a B motor and stock hood

According to Edelbrock's web site the RPM has a carb height of 5.35 and the Victor is 6.13, so about 3/4 inch higher. Do you know how much hood clearance you had before?

I had about 1/2" between the airbreather with a 1" drop. It should fit with a shorter base. Just curious what others may have done.
