Default BBC fitment of carb and cowl?

Has anyone, or is it even possible to get a carb to clear the cowling (leaving the wipers on car) on a 4th gen F-body with a BBC and a victor single plane intake? Some trimming would be ok, but the rules in the class i am looking at require a stock cowl. If anyone can help please let me know. Please post any pics you have.

Thanks to all

You will have to notch about a 3 inch in length and all the way deep to the windshield in order to fit it. It will be tricky.

Sorry to bring this back up, but I have the same question. Can a carbed BBC fit in a fourth gen, while retaining the wipers? Looks like I am trying to get into the same class as previously mentioned.
