Edelbrock Performer RPM on a '69 Cuda 340 Hood clearance???

Bingo! New air filter measurements are now in order. I used a wix filter with some room left over before it hits the insulation pad. Hey don’t have the number handy at the moment though.

If you have clay (so damn handy that stuff) assemble it all up and make a tower of clay for up top the lid in 5 spots. Middle, fore and aft, left and right. Open & close the hood and presto, now you now how much more you can go.

I was reading somewhere that the carbs likes a min. of 2-1/2 above the choke tower before the performance becomes hindered and bad. While more above the choke tower the merrier, I do t think a hole in the hood is what I would be doing! LOL
