Love the looks and horsepower potential of this intake. fit and finish very dissapointed with edelbrock. So will not fit 69 camaro with out modifications.

ouch. i have to cut the stock air cleaner opening on my cowl hood so i can fit a 14'' air cleaner on my victor jr. with a holley carb. my LS1 sits too forward.

unless you want an outlaw 4'' glass hood. looks like your only option.

what mounts are you using? how far off the valley is the TB opening?

I would look first to lowering the motor, then if your still too high I would possibly cut the neck on intake and angle it down some more vs cutting the hood.

Yes I agreed motor siting a little high but sit happy on the cradle and tranny. I am working on lowering the motor. My motor plates are S&P one with a prothane motor mount, was looking at the enegy suspensions a looks king of smaller and have a backing plate that can be removed. Need an inch of space.
Thanks for the replies

i have carshop plates on my 69 camaro with the tall 327 engine stands. im running stock rubber motor mounts.

i tried to run energy motor mounts but my autokraft oil pan pretty much touched the frame rail.

I made my own mounts out of 1/4 inch plate and stock small block chevy engine mounts and factory tall frame mounts.The engine sat low enough to run a truck intake and the hood closed no problem.I beleive the edlebrock intake is the same height as a truck intake.

Lower the motor, keep the intake.

i run the hooker mounts and the engine is as far back and low as possible. that would help you. i "think" you can run the ls1 intake backwards. that may help you out.

I agree. Between those two I think you would get it to fit.

For the Chevelle guys this intake fits under the stock hood fwiw.

did you get it working? i was considering doing an EFI swap on my 69. I measured from the valley tray to the top of my cowl and got around 13"

I would honestly make the investment to go dry sump before I poked it out the hood and I'm not the type to go throwing money around to have the latest greatest. That's how much a smooth hood is worth to me. My $.02

the judge

Looks like you could cut top ear off that intake and gain 1/2 or better throttle body is flat on top anyway. Good luck please update .
