You running the truck intake? That cover doesnt have much depth. I have a Camaro cover that Im fabbing up to fit on my truck but mine will have a Maggie. Im planning on cutting out the middle and just using the sides. Havent put it on truck with the stock intake, Ill see tonight when I get home.

Yeah the stock intake. Dont know how it will do with the alternator and such. Cant wait for it to come in so I can either be happy or really disappointed.

If not you can just use the sides like me. Ive seen that done when root style chargers are used on camaros.

Not what I wanted to hear at all. Maybe Ill just mount it under the hood underneath a lexan panel and say I went ZR1 style.

Just swap in a motor out of a SS, that way you can enjoy your pretty engine covers and have more power
