440 intake question

building a 512 stroker motor for a 1970 roadrunner, using a edelbrock performer RPM intake manifold. My question is this intake stands a little higher than a stock intake or even a edelbrock performer intake. will I be able to find an air cleaner to fit under the air grabber hood without modifying the hood? pretty sure the stock air cleaner will no longer fit. you can see the stock cleaner to the left

Holley Carb ?

or,
check the internet, I think there are 6 pack style drop base cleaners out there ?

It is one of the reasons we typically with stay low-deck 400 Blocks using Eddy Heads below 600hp/Trq., same Rod Ratios as the 512, stronger blocks.
