Default Restomod with SRIII / LSx measurements

Hey all,

Can anyone running a C2 with a SRIII chassis / LSx engine and a big block hood get the measurements from the top of the engine block to the top of the hood on both the front and rear of the engine?

I am looking at different intake manifold options and want to know how high I can go while using a stock-ish hood. I know, mine is a '64 and they did not have BB hoods.

Also, please note the year of the hood and type of motor mounts you used.

Thanks!

Default C2 Hood clearance

Joe,

I had Mike take some measurements when I thinking about a custom intake.
This is a standard SRIII chassis w/ 65'-66' BB hood, we thought the height is the same as a 67'
