Need some hood clearance measurements from the mail lists



Gentlemen,
 
As you may know, we are in the process of casting a new Air Gap 4bbl. intake for the 318 Poly based on the successful HEMI manifold design from Hot Heads (over 500HP at the Engine Masters Challenge) and I want to double check the average hood clearance for our 1962-66 Mopars equipped with the 318 Poly – the early 1956-61 cars seemed to have enough room for a tunnel ram!
 
It would be of great help to me to have hood clearance measurements based on the distance from the top of your 2bbl. or 4bbl. carb to the underside of the hood if your Mopar is 318 Poly equipped (although other engines may have similar hood clearances).  You will need to measure this distance w/o the air cleaner assembly.  Perhaps lay a straightedge across the top of the carb throat and use a pillar of clay or loose tension measuring tape for an accurate measure.
 
Thank you for any help on the measurements you can provide and please send them “off-list” to me at glpavlovich@xxxxxxx so we don’t bore the really BIG HP guys or clog up our mail list.

Please address private email -- email of interest to only one person -- directly to that person. That is, email your parts/car transactions and negotiations, as well as other personal messages, only to the intended recipient. Do not just press "reply" and send your email to everyone using the general '62-'65 Clubhouse public email address. This practice will protect your privacy, reduce the total volume of mail and fine-tune the content signal to Mopar topic. Thanks!
