When I cupped the arms, I allowed for ~1/2" of clearance on my mock-up bag @ 25psi. Installed, the weight of the BBC plus those heavy hubs expanded the bad more than I liked (my clearance was about the thickness of a yardstick). I felt once the suspension started moving around, the bag would likely make contact.
I opted for Porterbuilt arms as they would swap right in place, had the forward placement option, & already had a tab for a sway bar (I still had to figure that out for the modified factory lowers as the original mounting position was no longer an option).

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....
Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
