Need more info dude. What are you looking to do, convert to carb or stay with the ECU? Power adder? What motor mounts/suspension do you have?
It's no different than any other time you deviate from stock parts - either cut a hole in the hood or drop the motor down to gain clearance. Dropping the engine down affects a lot of stuff beyond hood clearance.

Hood was just painted so cutting a hole in it is not an option. I am thinking along the lines of a new intake. The car has a QA1 front suspension kind of sits where it sits. I was looking at the holly sheet metal intakes need to find some measurements.

The engine has a holly Terminator X system to run the fuel injection system
You can get a 6.1 intake for about $600. What year hemi is it? pre 09 (pre-eagle) or 09 and up(eagle)
You can get one like this if its pre eagle 2007 (Pre-eagle) Gen 3 Hemi 5.7 Intake Manifold | eBay Most other intakes sold are for eagle/6.1/392 head ports.

Hi-Ram or..? H.R. overall height is 11.59". Good luck with that.
Either way, Google is your friend.
Holley Hi Ram.
Probably looking at the Sniper intake which has been discontinued. Can get them used though.

That intake is 8" tall. Didn't even know it existed. Probably wasn't a big selling item, most Gen III users are probably going to use a Mopar ECU or Terminator/Dominator. Sniper is too basic.

That’s what I was looking for I had seen it but couldn’t find it on Holleys website I see why now.

What transmission are you planning to use? That could be a factor in fitment. What specific suspension system do you have? Looks like QA1 has specific Gen III motor mounts but it says they are for their coil over suspensions.

It is a 46 Rh transmission and it is a QA one front suspension with coils gets rid of the torsion and I have the hemi mounts.
OK so 2015 you can put a 6.1 intake, the edelbrock, the holley sniper, or you could just go with regular 5.7 car intake. I am 90% sure the car intake does not have SRV like the truck intake and the 392 intake. I don't remember that on my challenger. Just has a vac port and a foam silencer port.
