69 with 351c wants ram air

Recommended Posts

I have a 351 Cleveland I plan to drop in my 69 mustang once the motor is complete and dyno’d.  The mustang’s hood is going to get a 429 scoop with a inner seal shelf.  I’m trying to make this a ram air set up....  I can’t be the only one that’s wanted to do this.  Using a blue thunder intake.  

Has anyone done this and can you share your set up?

the scoop itself is a generic SLP 10005 purchased from JEGS : bolted and glued

The fresh air setup is homemade from a cake pan

and a reduced height KN 2.66" 

fort the bottom plate I used a holley drop base

The scoop height is little bit low but enough to clear the air cleaner setup - the intake air temp is much lower and equal the temperature of ambient air.

BTW where did you find your Boss 9 scoop - I was looking for something like yours and could not find it ;(

This is very cool. Where did you get the scoop set up from?

Tommy White makes them.  Currently on eBay.  429 boss hood scoop.  1200 for scoop.  +300 for cables.

Done a fresh air using an aluminium cake pan - needed some clearance for the Pro Flo 4 using a victor intake

Any issue clearing the distributor?  What height is your dizzy?

I have about 1/2" clearance with the spark wire socket - the dizzy is an Edelbrock unit : kind a MSD with a big cap.

The pro flo 4 throttle body is by itself lower 1/2" than an standard holley.
