Will Partsrack chrome smooth tubes work with Roe?

[RikRok]

I need to know do the tubes need to be shortened or modified in any way to work with a Roe s/c and stock tb's?

Not sure. The length is close to the same, the throttle bodies on a Roe car are a little farther apart (wider)

Yes with modifications. The chrome tubes are too long and have to be cut down for clearance. Easy to do if you have a metal cutoff saw. If not, go to any muffler shop and they can do it. I purchased my set-up from West Coast Viper. Look identical to Parts Rack product.

Just remembered I have a picture of my engine in the media gallery. Click on the photos under my avitar and you can see how they look.

Just a comment here. My car came with the smooth tubes Partsrack sells and I found them to be WAY too long, even on my NA engine. When I had them powder coated to match my intake manifold and valve covers I cut one full inch off the throttle body side and they are still stuffed in there requiring the silicone coupler that goes from the tube to the air box to be shoved as far forward as possible in order to keep them from touching my Accufab 70mm throttle bodies (which I do not think stick out farther than stock) on the other end. Next time I have them out I am going to cut another inch off so they allow a bit more flex space in the silicone couplers.

If memory serves me right, 2" shorter should work.

I was able to use chrome smooth tubes without any mods, no cutiing or trimming, the only thing I did was add clamps.
