WSR Throttle Body To Air Lid Length Issue

I have to barely clamp on the maf and throttle body to reach the air lid on my Weiand Stealth Ram Engine. Never had to do that with the LTR set-up, so I was wondering if anyone else has had a problem with it. The throttle body is the same length as the stock unit, the maf is a bosch and everything else are OE parts. I've pushed the air box as far forward as the holes would let me. Do any of you HSR guys have a fittment issue?

Same here too.Rubber is little short ,but it could stretch so that it will fit to throttlebody.

Are you surprised because you raised the TB that the intake tubing doesn't quite fit OE anymore? I have a bird so completely different intake tube but with enough shimmying/adjusting it hooked up.

So its a common thing, I thought there might have been something wrong to cause this. I doubt it will come apart, but theres always that chance. The thread tittle makes it sound like its a big deal lol.
