Default LS1 Lid conversion questions

Gathering parts for the swap.

I have the slp lid and k&n filter, i just need the base, but where do i find a coupler for that goes between the throttle body and the MAF? The TB is an oval outlet and the MAF is round.

I plan on getting a 4 inch cowl hood for the camaro, will the ls1 lid and base fit under there without any cutting?

For the throttle body I'm pretty sure it is a 4 inch silicone. Can't remember.
