Jay ,

How much higher does the RPM air gap manifold sit up with the adapter compared to a FE RPM manifold ?
Just thinking about room for hood clearance with my 66 Fairlane
Do have 427 hood too

OK..thats just fricken weird...I have the same valve covers as well and I also have a T-sump canton pan but a rear sump...
Do you have any pics of the porting on the intake that you would share..It would be some creative and time consuming dremel work..
My engine is 100% street....no drag racing..
