Default Fast Toys Air Lids

Looking for something clean to install with my new motor and thinking the stock lid might be to small, considering the size of my new TB. Was looking at the Fast Toys LID options, and assuming it clears a stock Formula hood (all signs point to yes), was going to buy the 104MM variant.

Motor is a 408 Stroker, Victor Jr, 249/257 650/650 Cam, starting with the Edelbrock elbow since I still have a rear-end to buy a hood is on the "future plans" list. Also have the throttle body from the EFI kit.

Kinda like the idea of keeping a stock looking (well within reason when you have a victor jr) and less flashy engine bay since the car itself is modest white formula coupe.

I have a 85mm Lid for my setup and I love it. It isn't too flashy like the Volant, but it looks better than the standard lid because of the bulge in the middle.

thanks for the input guys.

Now what I need to know, , by the pictures, it looks like it angles downward toward the motor, my Victor jr setup does that also in reverse, towards the radiator support, only concern was the 2 lining up.

Mine has a little issue with fitment but it wasn't hard to fix that. I got mine to go with my 85mm MAF and I love it.

Ya, I know its dirty under there.
