Default Need help with RamJet 502 air intake ideas.

Looking for options with the Ramjet 502 air intake. Right now I need to extend the air cleaner out and down slightly to clear the newly modified L-88 hood (see John Dirks thread - Has anyone made their own high rise hood?) The simple solution is to get a short extension hose to the throttle body. Problem is, that puts it right behind the heated air from the radiator. What options might i have, short of cutting the core support?

Need to get a throttle body duct, check out Patsnitrovette, he is running a MAF system but you could copy is intitial duct and the C5 over the radiator filter extension.
