Some installation photos of the 496ci Long Ram stroker engine.
With the long ram intakes hanging off the sides of the engine, additional room to the inner fenders, especially the passenger side fender, is limited.
I had to create a shallow baseball sized dent in the inner fender to make some additional room for the bowl of the rightside long ram intake.

A 1960 Chrysler NewYorker was never ment to be delivered with long ram intakes. The Chrysler 300-F letterseries came with different inner fenders along with removable access panels to make sparkplug service easier.

Shorty headers were used to help the engine breathe a little better.
