That setup looks pretty good to me.

How high is that carb? The thing looks like it's way up there.... any chance that's going to fit under the hood? Or a 5 inch raised hood for that matter?

Phew I was worried for a second LOL. That's a standard 9.8 deck height setup yes?

If so that's good.

I was looking @ a 572, big chief's, single 4 bbl with a 2 stage speedtech diffuser. just wire the car for 1 kit, and run one stage of the plate, which one depends on the jet needed that day (just arm kit 1 or kit 2 depending on the track, each has it's own timer, etc)

And, much like you, someday when it's done.
