Might not work if the carburetor is a Holley. I had clearance problems with the base of the air cleaner and the top of the Holley fuel bowl with my single snorkle on a 77. I assume a dual would be the same.

Read somewhere that that piece that you want to put on top of your carb will not work with anything but FI. Something about air flow path above the carb. I would use something like that in a minute, if it did work.

You going to be the tester, I hope! Let me know how it works.
