Default ???? for the ls1 mustang guy's

Do you think a intake and carburator setup would fit under a stock hood? Also is an ls1 taller than a 302?

It sure looks like it'd fit, and since most everyone puts cowl hoods on Mustangs, it'd definitely fit like that

Yes it does look like it would fit. I know it would fit under a cowl hood but I dont want a cowl because its just going to be a stock mustang.
