 Has anyone got the stinger hood from ecklers? I'd like to know how much additional room it'll give. have a 73 big block and am thinking about heads and intake change. Nothing to radical, might need 2-3 inch's.

                                        thanks for any info

Vette(s): 1969 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Just bought it from my uncle who owned it since 1971. Fathom green, green interior. 350/300, T400.

I've been looking at buying one too, I don't need any extra clearance, but I think it looks really cool.

 Did that since the first post. Incase anyones interested in the answer,,,,, They said put a 3 &1/2 inch block in the drip rails along each side of engine. Run a string across the blocks and thats the hood height.
