Josh,
Is the problem that the base of the air cleaner hits on something on top of
the intake. IIRC when I put a 14" on my '88, the base that came with the air
cleaner was recessed to make it sit lower, however it hit on a hard A/C line.
I ended up swapping bases with another air cleaner that had a flat bottom which
mage the air cleaner sit a little higher.
