Default lt1 intake questions

I have a 71 standard small block car. I want to put a holley on it. How much taller is the lt1 intake over the standard intake? How much more clearance is under the lt1 hood over the standard hood? Is the lt1 air cleaner 14 inches in diameter? I want to use a dual line vacuum secondary with a hand choke so I can use a drop base air cleaner. I know it's tight under the hood. Will this fit? If you have any suggestions I would appreciate it.

I can help with part of your question, I have a 1970 LT-1 intake and the dimension as shown is 3".
