Silversmith - it's a stroked FE. Keith Craft originally told me it would be a 460 but after we calculated it, it's really a 459 ci. I never corrected it. Don't have the engine in the car yet but I have a 63 427 low riser, dual-quad intake on it. Shelby ran duall-quad low risers on their street cars. As far as I know it should clear the hood fine but until I get it in there I can't be 100% sure. ERA said a medium riser intake would definately not fit without a hood scope. I'm using ERA's headers. I think the stub-outs from the head are the same as for the sidepipe exhaust. They have a 4 into 1 collector that sweeps back to run undercar exhaust. I don't anticipate any problems with them.
