judging from the pic it does look to be sitting kinda high, the intake is almost as high as the cowl!...a truck intake on there prob wouldn't fit under the hood.

Re: Headers for 600 hp bagged 69 c-10
Don't mean to highjack the thread, but I thought it sat pretty well. I angled the motor so that it sets level, which brought the rear up.

Here is a link to the Headers

All I had to do was notch the ears off the Transmission. I'll try to grab a few pictures this week.

I'm at about 4" with the frame rails on the ground. The pan is very shallow though, it was an LS3 crate motor.
