Actually there will be less heat on the alternator. There is usually a big DP running right next to it. Most drag cars don't use a PS pump either, so no biggie there. Intake? Cut a hole in the fender well. Why would you want spare room? It isn't doing anything, so why not use it?

The heat on the hood is a valid point. For a drag car it will be fine though. Other than that I kind of like the setup!
