Or more correctly, how big should I make the hole in the hood so the air cleaner doesn't get damaged under acceleration?

The new motor we put into our 65 Valiant ends up being just high enough to hit the hood. it will likely get higher as we're going to try and fit magnum exhaust manifolds to it and will need to raise the drivers side.

We've opted to put a six pack scoop on it, which is plenty wide/deep for this. The question then is if the air cleaner is 14", how big should the hole in the hood be? Eventually, we'll make it into a "cold air" setup, hell why not.

Thoughts or examples would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
