You need to enable your PMs. Here is my response to your question on my hood.
That picture in my sig was taken pre-swap. I had to use a hood scoop to clear the engine. I don't think anyone is fitting the engine with out modifying the hood.
Mazworx did a custom manifold for one of the VH guys on here, they basically machined like 2 or 3 inches off of the intake "spider" and then welded some flat aluminum plate on it. I don't know that I would go that route because it would effect the tuned runner length of the stock intake manifold.
I also wouldn't space the subframe as it will throw off the suspension geometry.
I used a mopar hood scoop out of the summit catalog. Good luck. Let me know if I can help.
