Before I pull the trigger and buy it, I would like to hear from someone who has done it. Ford recommends an Edelbrock Victor Jr. intake manifold which is pretty tall. Edelbrock lists a (shorter) RPM manifold as an alternative option. Put a carb and air cleaner on top and can you get the whole sheebang under the hood w/o cutting holes? Surely somebody as done this install--fill me in please.
