Default Air gap

Will the Edelbrock RPM AIR GAP fit under a LT-1 Hood?

THANKS

What intake is on the motor now? I know a Performer RPM (non air gap ) will fit if you use a drop base air cleaner. I posted these pics a while back.
The air gap is a performer air gap but not a performer RPM air gap. All of the dimensions are how much lower each of them are than the Performer RPM non air gap.

Yes it will fit providing you use a drop base air cleaner or the stock LT1 air cleaner.
