Default Will these fit under my hood?

I was wondering if the Edelbrock Victor Jr. intake with the Sullivan upper intake will cover the stock hood? Also, do you guys think that the Sullivan upper will clear the alternator?

Just gathering up parts to build a blown motor for my car and wanna be a little different, and I haven't seen anyone do this before.

sullivan i belive is for 4V's mostly used with TT applications or anything other than roots or twin screw blower. the AM intake will work but unless you NEED it its not worth 350 imo just to have a silver looking intake.

I have been wondering what type of gains I would see from this on my current setup. Well, the intake manifold at least and then use the adapter to fit the stock style TB. I think with a stock throttle body it doesn't fit under the stock hood if I remember correctly.

The Sullivan was created for using on their intake manifold for the 4v. While this is true, it will fit on top of any intake manifold that uses a 4150 Holley square bolt pattern...which the edelbrock intake manifold has.

Plus, OP is planning on building a blower motor, and a short runner intake manifold will add performance to the application. Any application using an aftermarket shortblock will benefit from this intake manifold. On a stock longblock car, a blower car will probably see some gain but I'd rather just up the boost to make the gain as a pulley is probably cheaper and both would require a retune.

You might see maybe 10-20rwhp from this on a boosted setup, but I wouldnt worry about it until you go built. Put that money towards an I/C. Also fits under stock hood with stock tb/plenum. mustangmancp is running that setup on his car and he has the stock hood.
