i have a 3/8" heat spacer with my typhoon. i had to pull some of the heat shield down and grind some the of the metal behind it so that my engine didnt hit the hood when i took off hard.

You also neeed to consider the extra cost of gaskets and injector o-rings, maybe even an adjustable fuel regulator while you're in there
?
yes, most of the time they have to be ported too, because of all the flash. Go with a real intake not a knock off, you'll save money on quality.

I have the Typhoon but I think the Trick Flow looks better. If you are okay with the price difference go with the Trick Flow or Edelbrock. If you want to save the money, get the Typhoon and do the gasket matching yourself.
