hemi cross ram height

[Ceedawg]

I need the height from bottom of carbs to the block id pad. I've seen these intakes on a 66-67 Belvedere and wondered how much hood clearance was there. Or did it need the RO scoop?
Thanks

Had one on my 66 Satellite but cut hood for air filters. You would need a crossram air cleaner.

Fresh pictures. Didn't take photo of pad to top of carb driver side, it is 10" off pad. Back of manifold is higher, guesstament 3/4". Pad to top of driver's side is 5 5/8" to 5 3/4". Photo 2 and 3 are the same just turned. A soppy job. If you use xram with bolt on top its higher.

Thanks, I have a Hogan’s cross ram fabricated one, 8-1/2 to top, I guess a big hole in hood with a spacer under scoop to raise it up some to fit some shorty aircleaners

Prince Edward Island? Family vacation there in the 60's. Nice friendly place. Funny thing the Ol'man got a speeding ticket, 55mph in a 35mph zone. Next day he went to pay the court clerk made a sound to say like bad boy. The Ol'man almost laughed and $35 later all is good. We laughed about it for years.

Things have changed a little since then. But we're still lagging behind a bit. lol Kind of a busy tourist spot though. It seems like one out of every three licence plates are from away. Still a friendly kind of place with a slower pace for sure.

Thought I was the only one to use a Lufkin rule, 50 years in the Cabinet business.
