Default NO LUCK w/search or Sponsors about my intake set up, please help!

I have tried the search with so many word variants and I have called many sponsors here that actually have a number to call, because ALOT do not.

I would like to see if anyone here has this set up so I know for sure if it will clear my stock WS6 hood, and if anyone has pics of this setup I would GREATLY appreciate it.

I have an 01 Ws6, Im putting a Vic jr intake Pt# 28455 and the low profile intake elbow part # 3847.

Not sure about the hood, but the cowl area is pretty much going to have to be trimmed or modified. I ran a ram air style hood on my carbed 95 Z28, i had enough room with my stock hood to clear a 90* elbow, but it was a old SBC and the intake was a performer.

I think this elbow will clear the cowl and the hood.

Hey Steve, yea that was the plan last week but my sons team announced yesterday that the fall brawl playoffs start this Saturday. I might go after his game, as long as it starts at 10 am. I was at Byron with my brothers Saturday. That sucked cause there was bracket racing among DIESEL TRUCKS! and they kept breaking ****! Sucked

You going?
