Should be just fine !

Low deck should give you more clearance. My RB with a Performer RPM intake, 800 AVS2, 1/8" phenolic spacer & the 14x3 air cleaner is up close & personal with the hood.

Thanks. Building a 499 for a buddy,he won't cut the hood!

I would think you'll be okay.
The low deck helps.
You will most likely need a dropped base aircleaner, you could use the bottom drop with an original top..... and use whatever thickness of a/c element that works.

1 inch? Probably not,
1/2 inch? Maybe.
2 inch, (like I run), nope.

I've got a 1" under a avs2 on a dp4b in my 65. The stud as short as it could be scraped the paint off the rib in the hood. I have a scoop and a big hole in the hood now! He has one of those silver belvederes,I kid him but I wouldn't cut it either.

My 67 Satellite ran a low deck big block, standard port cast iron heads, Mopar M1 single plane intake, Holley 3310 style 750 carburetor, and a half inch nitrous plate spacer. I was using a 14 inch drop base air cleaner and it all fit under the stock flat hood. I think I was running a 3 inch thick air filter too. The Edelbrock 383 RPM intake should be around a half inch shorter than the low deck M1 single plane.
