Intake ?
Ok guys I think Im gunna try out the Weinand Stealth intake on my 460 and was wondering how much taller it is than the factory manifold. Anybody have this manifold on a 460 in a 78 or 79 truck with an open element air cleaner and no body lift. Theres probably nothing to worry about but it never hurts to check.
Thanks alot

I have a Stealth on my 460. It's about 3" taller than a stock manifold. If you use a filter element that is only 3" tall, there should be no clearance problems. I have a 5" tall K&N and it won't clear the hood on my truck. I'm also using a drop base air cleaner.

I'm currently running the factory air cleaner housing w/ a 4" K&N so the lid sits up about an inch from the base, and also have a nitrous plate under the carb. Don't have any clearance problems yet, but it is getting close.
