    Id buy it if it had the EGR spacer.......

    Id think that the lower manifold and the EGR space would be worth more then the actual tubular upper itself....

    atleast it is to me...

            glad I could help haha, it made my day to when I did the measurements. Also if the 1/2'' is the diff in hitting or not i will just lay a folded up newspaper on top of the intake elbow for some clearance and slam the hood on it, I would much rather have a dent on my stock hood '' power pimple '' haha than have a cowl hood on it. But thats just me

              I think you can live with the half inch... I know there's a slight amount of clearance even with that gt40.

                I've been noticing these types of EFI systems being used on 408W stroker engines. I wonder how good they run?

                  Take your hood off and lay fishnet over the engine bay. It shouldn't harm the belts or anything like that, and it will look tough.
