OK I sat the whole assembly on the floor (I'm running trips 3x1v right now on the car) - so here is the Clifford setup.
Measured from the floor:
2-1/8 Top of port, inside
2-1/2 Top of port, outside
3-1/8 Flat of intake where adapter bolt on
3-5/8 Top of adapter (carb gaskets sit on this)
4" Top of carb gasket pack (I might have needed this 3/8 pack for clearance, not sure)
7-1/8 Carb Air Cleaner Flange
9-7/8 Top of flat center (Ford non-dropdown 14x2" air cleaner)
So in your nomenclature then
X=1"
Y=1-1/2"
Z=6"
T=7-3/4" = top of air cleaner vs top of port opening
This probably gave 1/2" clearance to the hood, but it never hit.
Hope that helps!
