Default eldelbrock intake?

1977 Vette-L48-stock 350. When I bought this car, it came with an old edelbrock intake, a streetmaster model. I've got a new Holley 600 carb, headers, and dual exhuast. Can anyone tell me which new edelbrock intake I can install that I won't have hood clearance issues with. I eventually plan on installing the GM 350/290 crate, so I think I should be able to swap over the new carb and intake to the new engine. Thanks,
Kenny

I have a 77 L48 that I just did a top end rework L98 heads roller rockers, SS valves,3 angle valve job, CC 270H cam & lifters, CC timing chain set, Edelbrock performer RPM intake, Holley 650 double pumper dual feed carb, 96 corvette big 2 1/2"exhaust manifolds, Drop base air cleaner. Everything works GREAT!

That's great. Do you remember the model number of the intake? 2701, 2101 etc.? How many horses do you think you have now??
