Default Hood clearence?

Will my engine fit, and how can I make sure it will? I want my motor to sit under the factory 68 GT500 style hood. It is a 351W with CHI heads topped with a GT40 EFI alum hox intake. Im going to be using the ron morris style lowering motor mounts. But will it fit?

Just an educated guess, but I think so.

my son got a similar intake under the hood of his 64 Falcon with a 302 no problem. Your 67 should have more room, especially with your hood.

The 351 will sit about 1" higher than a 302, (or a touch more) he has more hood clearance than that.
