What fits under a stock hood?

I'm going the SBC route and was curious about intakes. Does a super victor with a throttle body elbow fit under a stock hood, or do the motor mounts need to be lowered?

While I'm at it, who offers a manual steering box?

Thanks, Jim

I have a victor e intake on mine with a top hat and a 1/2in spacer clears fine.You can get a steering box from your local junk yard.Use a mid 80s s10 box.
