LT1 Hood. How much more clearance?
How much hood clearance do you gain with an LT1 hood over a stock 1972 hood? I have searched the forum but haven't come up with an answer.

I just put a straight edge across the bottom of my LT-1/BB hood at roughly the center of the hood and it measures 3-1/8".
If you have a small block hood you can measure yours in the same manner to find how much difference there is.
If I don't see an update I'll get to my brothers as soon as possible to measure his.
