There was a question about using the stock hood with this intake and carb. I will have to say, not possible unless you don't run and aircleaner or a choke horn. And even then, it might be a little close.
I'm running a K&N drop base bottom, a K&N 3" filter, and an AFCO dome top lid. Plus, I have a .5" nitrous plate. This will push me to a 4" or taller cowl hood. Someone running no nitrous plate or spacer, plus a flat top, drop base filter will need a 2" cowl at least. Or get really creative.
The blue line represents the top of the aircleaner (not the domed part, just the lip edge. My dome top really pushes me to need a bigger cowl) The red line is the firewall cowl which is the same height, roughly, as the hood.
