Well I went to put the hood on today for the first time with the air filter on and guess what ? With the 2 inch high air filter on the 4 barrel holly sitting on top of a 350 small block its about 1 inch to tall to allow the hood to lay flat. Luckily I am not going to be running with a hood. However I will need the hood on to get it titled in New Jersey. So I just ordered a cheap hood scoop that I will cut into the hood so I can get it titled

Not the end of the world but just to let any chevy builders know
