Default tbss dimensions

Does anyone have the tbss height dimension versus the old truck intake? I am limited on the height I have a truck intake now on car with a flat hood and don't want to put a cowl on it. Thanks for info

TBSS is shorter by roughly an inch. This is my measurements of the old truck intake on the bench, and the TBSS on the car so I could be a little off. The TBSS is definitely shorter.

I thought they were a little shorter but wasn't sure. Are all the 2007-08 intakes the same as what everyone calls the tbss? Thanks for reply

This sort of makes me mad, I threw a Old truck intake on my long block to try to close the hood and it wouldn't close and just assumed the other intake was taller just by looking at it.....

Bought an LS6 intake....

its still may not have closed. it really depends on motor position. on my firends' foxbody wagon we got the gen 3 intake and big case truck alt to fit without cutting the hood.

same era foxbody another guy i know had to cut a huge hole to fit the truck intake.

just depends on what k member and mounts you use i guess
