1972 Swinger hood clearance with Indy single plane

[dstemmerman]

Thinking about using the Indy 360-H1-1K kit on a 408 build which includes a tall single plane intake (360-3R). Was curious if anyone has installed this kit in a 70's dart and had any hood clearance issues. Prefer not to hack up my hood if possible. Thanks FABO!

yes, that's one tall manifold. Don't think its going to fit under a flat hood. I know IMM can machine off some to shorten it, but still some measurements are in order.

Thanks Fred. I notice you are running a W2 408 in a 71 Dart. Do you have a scoop on your hood?
