Use the stock bellows with the 85mm MAF and our lid. That provides the best fitment. The smooth bellows causes the back end of the lid to stick up and rubs the hood. Also, they can crack the lid.

I'm interested to see what the OP runs now with the added mods. I sure would have thought it would be putting more the the rear wheels, but who cares if its running pretty good ET's with what is considered a 'small' stall speed these days.
