Edelbrock is suggesting that their RPM Air Gap manifold will not fit under the stock hood of my 84. Anyone have experience with this manifold on a C4? How did you deal with clearance issues?

Performer ,Torker II ,Weiand Stealth all w/Holley carb are mentioned as fitting with a drop base air cleaner
Compare the listed height of those intakes with that of a Air Gap
A Hood scoop is always a option?

The Air Gap intake is the same height as all of the other "high rise" intake manifolds; a full 6" when laying a straight edge on the carburetor mount surface then measuring down to the top of the rear of the block. I suggest going to a Renegade then everything will still fit under the hood and will flow just as much air as a high rise.

they are not making a lot of progress still.. this is on their site ......"NEWS-- UPDATE: 4/10/13 We are going to be picking up a few manifolds this week for the first batch and get the ball rolling and get some of them out. The rest will be shipped out from the manufacturer after that. The DCS Team."
