If this is something you're contemplating, you have a LONG WAY to go before you'd benefit from it. You haven't even done headers or a tune yet. Most of these intakes are for high hp, big cubed motors.

Taking notes, planning on a wild NA setup I ran the Vic Jr on my turbo build just wanna see what people are running these intakes but don't need big cubes to benefit from it. Yes I am 100% stock right now witj 187miles on tje clock :/ lol I'm used to wild setups on trucks but thinking of a forged 5.3L for my goal

Plus, it takes a lot more than just a taller hood. There are some significant modifications required to the rear cowl area.

yes, you have to trim the cowl back a good bit

Thanks I noticed on 429s thread I'm sure cutting and fabrication is a must

Pretty sure you have to kiss your windshield wipers goodbye for that intake!

They pretty much covered it all.

I'd really look at the fast before the Holley for a street setup on smaller cubes. Now if u are gonna shift at 7500+, the Holley may be ok but you will lose power in the low and mid rpm ranges.

Hmmm ok, I was planning to shift it too 7800 of course in a forged motor. might have to end up with that FAST for now

The holley is a killer manifold if everything underneath it is setup for it. 7800 shifts, nasty cam, big converter, a lot of gear, lots of compression and it will love it.
