Exclamation !HELP! Will this custom engine fit under the hood and clear?

I am currently building a RHS 502 Tall Deck dry sump with LS7 heads. Does anyone know if it will fit and clear the 2010 Camaro SS? Does it need to be mocked up? I also have an aftermarket hood with an extra 4.75" on top of the stock LS3 manifold (the hood clearance is the least of my concerns). Thanks

PM Michaelsmaro. I believe he has the same block. MTI Racing did the engine for his car, so you could contact them also.

Yes it will fit but it will not be a direct drop in and bolt up but with a few modfications it will fit and a new hood with a 4" or 6" cowl
