Need a quick measurement please...
Would someone be so kind as to measure from the center of the distributor to the TPI Plenum/TB mount? (Feel free to estimate the center and measure without removing the dist cover, a 1/4" isn't going to be that critical)
Thank you!
Thank you!

What intake.?
Be sure to allow for TB to thermo housing clearance.
My Victor E ( Air gap design ) restricts how low the TB ( consequently the plenum) can go if a thermo housing is used because the base of the housing is 2" higher than TPI one.
Kens80v had to do this mod to get clearance on the E intake with custom Nitrous Outlet plenum / elbow

Fine if fitted to a LT1 with no coolant outlet

It's a converted 18* high rise (Edelbrock 2959) so space is very limited. I definitely planned on adding an outlet to the front of the coolant crossover to use that t-stat housing.
It looks like I may even have to trim the coolant crossover down a little bit to make room for the IAC valve, we'll see...
