Question on trick flow top end and hood clearance

[70rusteze]

I have 1970 challenger rt with a 440 and I was wondering if the intake manifold on the trick flow top end kit would be a problem with the hood touching the carb?

Flat hood? Rallye hood? The best way is to put some modeling clay on top of the air cleaner and carefully and gently close the hood. Flat hood probably doesn't have enough clearance, but Rallye hood just might!

It’s a rallye hood, currently it has rpm heads with a torker 2 manifold and I had to use a drop base for the air cleaner because without it was just barley touching the hood
