It takes a lot more than just slappoing the vic jr on there.

What type of TB setup do you wanna run, elbow to the front or topmount accufab type with a carb hat?

The vic series require their own style fuel rails as well. Also a TB cable mod/replacement.

Also do you have an aftermarket hood? its quite damn near impossible to get a vic intake setup to clear the stockers if i remember right

Dont they only make 1 Victor Jr. for LS1's? either with injector holes or not. One for a SBC or BBC wont fit so i'd go with the LS1 one.

Check summit, they have the completel fuel kit to getyou setup.

you either need an accufab 4150, or en elbow w/ an elbow and 90mm TB mount, but that intake with an elbow and a 90mm like that really pry wont get you very much.

post the rest of your setup (motor spec wise) and someone will be able to help you

I have a Edelbrock Vic Jr manifold, Edelbrock "ultra-low-profile" elbow, and 90mm edelbrock TB. Mine uses the stock throttle cable and fits under my stock Z28 hood. It does use its own fuel rails, they are a seperate part number for those.

I didnt cut ANYTHING to make it fit, but it did touch the hood a tiny little bit. a few months later, i cut a small piece off the inside of the hood so it wouldnt touch anymore, but that was only for cosmetic reasons.

if you have an aftremarket cowl hood with lots of room, you can get a taller elbow that will flow a little better. But you will need to cut part of the plastic cowl if you do that.

Put an LS6 intake on it. With that turbo and those cubes, your setup wont benefit from the higher RPM powerband that the intake will give you. You will lose power everywhere IMO.

With boost it will be less of an issue. Why anyone would want a setup like that n/a is beyond me though.

That setup would be a last resort. I would be using a standard LS6 intake before I would even consider that elbow/intake combination.

SO you still havent answered. How much clearance do you actually have for a proper elbow ?

No. Use an LS6. This setup will hurt you even with a proper elbow.
