The land of commies and socialists!
I was wondering if someone wouldn't mind taking a few measurements for me. It would really help me with my build.

1. height or rise of the hood in center where the relief area is where the blower pulley kind of goes.

2. height or rise of the hood around the IAC area.

I believe the best way to do this would be to used a yard stick or something else flat and go off of the flat spots on the sides of the hood.

3. Center to center distance from the balancer pulley to the blower pulley. It doesn't really matter what blower you have as long as it fits under the stock hood and you didn't do anything to the engine mounts or k member to make it fit.

Thanks in advance.

Got a few rough measurements. Take them with a grain of salt.

The IAC/elbow notch in the hood is about 3/4" deep from that raised rib part of the hood surrounding it. That is to say the main center rib that runs down the hood.

The notch/dimple in that center rib to clear the blower snout is hard to measure because it's curved. I would peg it in the 3/4"-7/8" range.

Distance from crank snout center to blower snout center vertically is 16 1/2" for a stock Eaton.

Let me know if those are the measurements you're looking for, and if not what reference points you need. Pictures always help to explain.
