Re: Seat Covers
once you put the higher intake on and a higher carb you only have maybe
2 inches left for the air cleaner. i don't see that one working,
look at your height before the chrome

It clears but barely with the hood rod and the clip that holds the rod removed. I ,ll come up with a way top move it to the side or just have a hood prop laying in
the cab.

Re: Seat Covers
Maybe you could mount a prop rod inside the doghouse on a pivot and a clip, then swing it up to hold the lid when needed. Prevents tripping over it or kicking it out.

Exactly .I think I can reuse most all the original parts just move it.

Re: Seat Covers
Oh, I see. I didn't know that Dodges have an actual "prop rod". I wrongly assumed that you had a locking arm like my Ford. My bad! That will look great in the engine bay! Are you concerned about blocking the airflow that much?

The air cleaner is a early unsilenced one. It is open 360 ,so it should be ok.

They where $460.00 + $225.00 for the custom work to take the GT design and make it into a A-100 pattern.
