Default Will this fit?

I have a Firehawk hood, a WS6 air box, I ordered an MTI clear lid, and I'm planning on ordering an SSRA2.

Now, my WS6 air box seems to fit fine with the hood, but once I have the MTI lid I am not sure. To get a positive seal, I'm pretty sure I need weather stripping between the SSRA2 and the lower air box and weather stripping between the lid and the lower air box which will make the lid sit even higher?

Should I buy a non-WS6 air box, for the extra clearance, or is there another option? Also, I'm not sure if they (SSRA/Austin makers) make an insert to block off the entrance to the larger WS6 air box. Wish I could just not run a lower air box at all.

The aftermarket lids aren't much higher than the stocker.. if any.

Plus, I've seen Firehawks with the WS6 lower and aftermarket lids.
