: what is necessary to make this fit underneath the stock hood of a 72 maverick? please tell me only good news, i wanna keep the stock hood. i love that sprint paint.
I have a 1984 (police)351W in my 1973 Maverick Grabber, Hood clearance isn't a problem. I am running a Edelbrock Performer intake. The shock towers were a bigger issue for me. I shaved an inch (or so) off of each tower and welded plate in before I put the engine in. I have plenty of room for changing plugs etc. Plus it looks SWEET!
