I orderd my RPM airgap intake yesterday. Will i run into clearence problems?

I have a 302 with a torker right now (well technicly its off lol) and a edelbrock 650 cfm carb. Right now i have a 3 inch air cleaner, If i cant fit it, and go with a 2 1/4 k&n filter will i be allright? Reason i ask is im hoping i have clearence problems as it will give me a reason to change hoods. and i LOVE cowl hood and was looking at the one at mustang plus. But is it lift off or hinged? If i went with a lift off setup would all i need is hood pins? Or would it be better to just go buy a boss 429 scoop, and have the air cleaner REALLY get fresh air? will this make problems in the rain?
