I bought Kenny's ( MustangBoy) old EFI Spyder/ modified Performer intake and while assembling everything on the stand I dont think this elbow will fit under my stock hood but I wanted to see what others are running or using to fit it under a stock hood. I already have ES mounts but the K member is stock.

If it'll fit a 9.5" Super Vic under a stock Fox hood than it should clear either with a stock hood. That Spyder EFI was a Vic Jr., right?


I'm hoping it'll clear an 8.2" Super Vic on the 94 with a 1" setback and 1.5" cowl

Honestly I cant remember, it was a carb intake modified to EFI

If it was a 302 Intake from Kenny it should be a Victor Jr.

It would not fit under a stock hood on my car in fact I have a hole cut in my cowl hood to fit but I also had a 1" spacer on mine as well. Without the spacer it should have cleared the hood but not sure if it would have cleared the fuel rails. You could also look into the the edelbrock elbows I think they are approx $120 vs $225 for the sheetmetal ones. Good luck

The EFI Spyder clears the rails without a spacer just fine but I dont think it will clear the factory hood at all.

Here is the link to Edelbrocks site so you can see what they have that may work for you. Surely one of the short ones will fit under a stock hood
