I'm looking at this system for my 69' with a 383 stroker (about 465hp). Do you know if the XT-style clearance will be fine with a L88 hood? Looks like there is plenty enough, and the overall height from the specs says: 9.2"

Also, are you happy with your overall setup?

Wondering if you ever got around to installing yours? Also, wondering what you installed it on?

Hello, sadly, no. Every time i complete something, I find something else that needs attention. I did get a step closer by buying a new tank with submersible pump. I'm actually contemplating taking the body off to put in new fuel lines The ones i have don't look so good. I'm eventually going to put it on my SBC in my '71 convertible.

Hi
great setup. I didn't see reference to a stock hood only another member with L88 hood. Will this setup fit under a stock 79 L82 hood?
Did you have to run a new throttle cable back to pedal or tied into stock cable?
Thanks

Is the hood stock or is it a L-88?

Ya know Mr. Wescook. Instead of replying to all these old threads. Why don't you just start a new thread. And ask your question. Which obviously is, I want to install a fuel injection system on my Big Block C3. Blah, Blah year. Blah, blah, blah. What will fit under my stock hood.
Ya know, you'll likely get answers!
