That should be a nice combo.

Also a good choice. Is it a track car? Might be a little digital at the low Rs. Some good progressive linkage helps.
quote:I have 48IDF carbs here and they are exactly 4" tall. The manifold photo Auspeed sent has the flanges at about equivalent height to Kjell's setup (not Cain). From that photo and knowing the manifold bolt hole distance I would estimate the flange to be approximately 3" above the valley rail. Assuming that is correct it would leave 3" for a filter and your clearance. I will ask Auspeed for a more exact measurement.
I think you'll be in good shape for clearance. My car is 9 3/4" from the valley rail on the 9.5" deck engine block to the rib on the underside of the deck lid.
Best,
