cobrashoch- yes, my Elegant is 6"longer and 3" wider than "normal" and it's on a '74 vette chassis with the center mount fuel tank. I have a modified 460with 280/288 duration cam and an Edelbrock 750 carb. Somewhere around 550hp at the crank. a blower will fit, but that's plenty of power for me. At least for now. But it sounds like fun to put a blower on it.

The SPF- it's a handful at 486hp and what, 2200lbs. It'll scratch the tires thru 3rd and gets sideways quick if you're not careful. not much room in front of the engine, that's for sure, and the aircleaner already touches the hoodscoop.
