Sure, cut an arch in the hood, cowl and windshield and put on a conventional 14" air filter that is 3-4" high. There is just not going to be much if anything else to do with this setup.

i like this setup. looks the cleanest. the only other one i have seen is someone had one on a blue 4th gen that had like 6 feet of blue anodized tubing running from the 4150 down to where the battery would be.

On the back of the Ebrock rails, what fitting are you guys using? I would like to run a 3/8to -6 stairt fitting, then a 90* swivel on the line. But worried there is room for that before hitting the firewall. If so do you have to run a 3/8 to -6 90* fitting in the back of the rails, and a stait swivel end on the line. That is a bit shorter of a setup.

Very nice setup. I have been thinking about going this route over a new FAST. What intake did you have prior to this setup?

Sorry everyone for the late reply.

Prior to this I ran a FAST90 intake and TB. Ran great with my 383, however it sort of fell power wise off after 6000rpm. I ordered the elbow from Aaron and had him make one that was the least restriction as possible. Now, it revs easily past 7000 and has keeps pulling. Fuel mixture as well as Nitrous distribution for a wet shot is much better it seems with the Vic Jr. Plugs tell the tale.

Thanks guys.

On the driver side, I run a 3/8"npt to -8 straight, then used a 90* hose end to clear the firewall.

Has anyone tried to fit a SuperVic, 4150 Tb and maybe a Spectre Carb hat under a stock WS6 hood? I am seriously thinking that it will work but would like to know if anyone has attempted it. My thought that it will fit is because 1CAMWNDR was able to fit the VicJr 4150 TB and a spectre carb hat under a stock flat hood. The SuperVic is only 1.17" taller so I was thinking it would fit under a WS6 hood with some cutting of the hood supports.

The Super Victor has been measured to be a bit more than 1". Like 1 9/16" I think it was.

Not sure if I missed it or not but does anyone know if there will be a Super Vic for the L92 guys?

Also I am split between the "Cary's" (dont know the official name lol) and the Vic Jr. Except for the obvious benefits with the Cary intake and its 2 piece design, is there any other benefit over the Vic Jr to justify the cost? I am speaking unported by the way.

Even un ported the Performance Inductions manifold is better than a Victor Jr. The down sides are height, and price.

We used a spectre carb hat,2 spectre 45* elbows and a couple of 4" rubber clamps. Mine,his and another buddy have this setup on our cars.....the black carb hat will tend to flake the paint off.
