Strokin', what intake are you using? It seems to be much lower than any other dual quad intake I've seen. Does it clear the hood?

That is the Blue Thunder 2x4 intake and there is a 1" spacer under each carb. It should clear the Fairlane hood with no problem since I have a 5" tear drop hood from crites for the car. Hopefully will know in a few weeks if it clears or have to remove the spacers.

I thought it might be a Blue Thunder. That's about the only low-rise 2x4 intake I've seen for the 385's. Is there another brand with a similar intake? If not, why only one manufacturer? I'd like to put a 2x4 on my 429.
