And I pray that you're intending on doing a front or side mount, not a top mount. I don't think hoodscoops suite the SVX at all.

You might be able to get away with a vented V-mount though, and there'd be tons of room for it.
That would be a terrible idea unless you are talking about moving the ac condensor and radiator farther back and having the IC in front to catch the air stream.

Putting it behind all those things wont give it much air flow, and being in the engine bay will make it heat soak a lot faster.
