Do any of y'all have any experience with Edelbrock's new Performer RPM intake with the 71/72 Ram Air set-up? From what the Edelbrock Tech-line guy said, the RPM is approximately 2" higher than the stock (cast) 400 cid intake. I am installing the Ram Air system on my 72 and I am concerned about not being able to shut the hood if I use this intake. There is "some" room available where the hood pan boots mate with the carb pan. But how much extra "float" is present is the real question. I don't think that there is a spare 2" that can be taken out of the system. Thoughts?

I don't know how close the hood would be on the GTO,but Bryan Blocker makes a air filter system to make the shaker scoop fit on the early TA's when using the Performer intake.
Might contact him for info. http://www.blockersperformance.com/page798375.htm

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
