Will my trick flow intake fit ?

[fabster54]

I have a 302 out of 91 mustang with trick flow street upper /lower intakes with no spacer.. .will this fit under a stock hood on my 74 with no body lift ?

Maybe. If it does it will be tight. Stock 5.0 intakes are known for rubbing the hood depending on the condition of the body and motor mounts. I suspect the trickflow is no shorter and possibly a little taller then a stock 5.0 intake. I will be surprised if it clears but not going to rule it out.

thanks for responding bowsher.. i think the trick flow are taller than stock .. i was hoping it might squeeze in there.. i didnt realize the stock ones were so tight.. does anybody run this set-up? will any aftermarket intakes fit without a body lift?

I know it fits with a 2" body lift. Put the 5.0 in after the body lift. It would be really close with out the body lift. I would think you would at least need a 1" lift. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1GWGeQ334c

your efi install looks sweet, judging by your video i will need a body lift, or differant manifolds, trying to look where it is in relation to the top of the firewall and it looks pretty close to being level.. thanks for the input !

it will fit with 2" body, also will need an intake spacer w/ tall valve covers, i think i had issues with the master cylinder clearance too- buy a cobra, been there and it was too many headaches
