I did look in the past threads and found the in depth one by slvrvette but it looks like he has a aftermarket hood on there with the dual scoops.

If you can, measure the clearance of a stock hood with a stock intake. Referencing off of something the same on both engines (i.e. valve covers) measure the height of both intakes. Comparing the numbers and factoring your 2-3/4 should get you in the ball park. My intake is not stock, and though I don't think the heights are different from stock to mine, I don't want to throw you off kilter.

Depends how far forward the rise in the Toledo hood starts .
The HSR has a clearance problem on the stock hood near the TB .
HSR is 10" above the block , C4 has only 9.25" from block to hood
