K frame lowering blocks

Raise the hood? Talk about old school lame fixes. That's like adding A/C by rolling down the windows.

Air hats? Chances are good you'd drop the top of the air hat so low it would impede airflow. That's counter-productive. Those air hats look like you-know-what, too. I'm not seeing a whole lot of modern technology at work in either of your suggestions.

Spacers are easy, fast, light, cheap, and all but invisible. Hammers are old, too, but they sure have stayed popular.

How much air flow do you need on a /6. The spacers are cheap? What about all the other work and parts involved. Did you lower your K-member ? I didn't think so. You have no clue of the what would be involved on that old car. He said he was worried about modifying the hood. What about the bottom of that intake setting on the shock tower/stud . I can think of 4 things he'll have to modify or change after he puts those spacers in.

And that little super charged Omni. It probably flowed more then a built slant. Flow was no problem at all. Still had to modify the hood. Had two different carbs 500 holley and a 750 carter . Hat on or off no flow problem at all.
