Default Engine Height

I need to build a new deck lid for my boat. While building the deck, I want to make accommodations for any future engines. My question is how tall is a x:71 supercharger? Can somebody give me a dimension from the intake valley to the underside of the air cleaner? Please note if you are including a super chiller and how tall it is. Thanks!

The hatch? Proably not. Hopefully, I'll have some hours on the boat and the bugs worked out. Hopefully, I won't have broken by then.
