clearance questions for you fox guys.

[navyfc117]

I am installing the supercharger tomorrow and sunday. Here is the deal. I was planning on running the stock upper and lower. Will this clear my aeromotive fuel rails? If not I have a systemax upper and lower with a 1" spacer. Will that clear my hood?

Can i just use the 42# injectors with the stock fuel rails? The car is basically stock except full exhaust and the supercharger will be at 8lbs. Think the stock rails can handle that?

Thanks guys.

If the aeromotives don't clear just run the 42's with the stock lines. I'm pretty sure you will have an issue with the systemax and a 1" spacer.

The systemax won't clear the hood using a spacer. I have the same Holley and I had to sell my stock hood and get a TruFiber cowl

I was so wanting to avoid a cowl hood. I like the sleeper look.

Get HPM drop solid motor mounts. It may clear after that. You will gain 3/4 of an inch.

Sounds like a good idea. So I am just going to stick with the stock upper and lower for now and run the stock fuel rails if they aero doesnt work. I bet that K member would have lowered the engine.

Do you have all of the fittings and lines to run the aeromotives?

With the aeromotive rails, you can use a 3/4" spacer and clear the inlet, but you wont clear the hood. Therefore, it looks like stock fuel rails and the 42lb injectors. However, if you use the drop mounts, like Orange suggests, it will all clear. The stock hood will support a 3/4" spacer.

Setup:
HPM drop solid motor mounts.
Systmax intake with 1" spacer
Aeromotive Fuel Rails
42lb injectors
Supercharger

= Lots of fun.

I dont have time to get those. Looks like stock fuel reail for me. Until later anyways, Ill install the Holley when I get the mounts I suppose.

 

[beejay31000]

why dont you run a spacer on the stock intake. that should give you clearance and it will fit under the stock hood.

 

[navyfc117]

Installing today and tomorrow, dont have time to get that either.

 

[beejay31000]

well, use your stock rails til you can get the spacer, then put on the aeromotive rails.

if you can find a set of convertible mounts they are about 3/4" lower than yours if i am not mistaken.
