No one has any info on this?
How about hood clearance on a non bodydropped Cummins swap? =)

I'm dropping a 12 valve into my 03 and it will fit not bodydropped for sure, but not sure how much extra room. Not sure how the 03 engine compartment compares to yours.

I know on my uncles square we did unbodied there is one inch of hood clearance, 3/4 inch off firewall , and 3 inches of radiator clearance

I was curious about the same thing, I'm going to be doing a Cummins swap in a 76 this winter. Haven't seen anyone body drop one with the swap. I didn't want to jack your thread though since it's a different bodystyle.
Link?
