How about having the 8 throttle bodies coming out the top of the engine and having a BA bonnet scoop but having a opening at the front for the air. Like the picture.

Thats where i got my idea from to have them pointing up and to have a bonnet scoop and a cut at the front for air. Or you could have them pointing out of the bonnet but them it would be asking for the wrong attention.

Nice pic, but why did they build that, then go & put the injectors in the wrong place?? :?
Defeats the purpose if you build a manifold for horsepower, then locate the injectors for torque.
