TRIANGULAR AIR CLEANER

Hey folks, I want to install the Air Cleaner setup EDELBROCK P/N 1222 on my 92 RS Tbi, the thing is that not even the people from Edelbrock could answer me the question: Would it fit inside the stock hood with stock Tbi? my concern is because of the clearence between the hood and the upper plate of the cleaner.
If any of you have one of these installed please send me a picture...

Is it a dropped-base air cleaner? How much drop?

I'm not sure it would fit - I couldn't get anything under mine that was not drop base, and I don't think that one is.

It will fit, I had the elite series version of that filter (cast aluminum top) on a '91 TBI firebird.

You do have to remove the factory air cleaner spacer if I remember correctly.
