Any one got their hood up?

Not sure if this helps... I run a .700 spacer to raise up my stock Commando air cleaner and to the top of the wing nut from the rail (where the distributor bolts to) is 12.500 inch... Brick motor mounts. And I can shut hood with clearance... (Obviously)
Note: I used two magnets on top of air cleaner to hold a long straight edge that reached over to the rear rail flat...
Note 2: putting a rubber hose on my air cleaner stud and dropping hood... I still have .600+ clearance...
If, I misunderstood what you are looking for... I apologise !!!
