Does anyone know what the height of the Pantera version Blue thunder intake is? I have looked around the forums and the web and can only find numbers for the standard 351c version ( 4 7/16" / 5 3/8").
Thanks

Theoretically it should be about 4-3/4" front and back.
I have one on the shelf, I'll take a measurement the next time I'm at the storage unit.

Unique to this version is the carb mount is parallel to the oil valley.
This is due to the Cleveland actually being mounted level to the ground in a Pantera. Mustang etc. are mounted at an angle, thus the slope as shown in Joe's drawing.

I made the measurements today.
The front measurement (A in Joe's picture) was 4-11/16"
The rear measurement (B in Joe's picture) was 4-5/8"
Joe, the reference is the manifold's machined edges for sealing the tappet valley.
Technically a "flat mount" should have the same measurement front to rear, but there's always manufacturing tolerances. Not too far off from the 4-3/4" I predicted. Not that I'm bragging or anything.
