It should fit/seal pretty well with that soft rubber around it unless the filter itself is actually bent or twisted, the metal/wire mesh can allow that to happen possibly.

Re: My K&N doesnt seal for crap I just put a K&N in on my 00 SS and it fits tight. In the airbox there sould be a "tray" that the filter goes into. Its a rectangular plastic peice that comes out. If you dont have it then u are suckin **** into your engine with a K&N or any other filter u use. Also included in your K&N box (it may be wadded up and hard to see, I didnt find mine till 2 weeks later) is a gasket to put on the lid to give it a good seal. You have to put that on to get a good seal.
Good luck man.
