Default Weber Air Filtering

I've been planning on making an airbox for my car similar to what was used on all the factory race cars, just incorporating a tall oval air filter around the webers that seals to the hood. The air coming into the scoop is deflected carefully down to pressurize the area around the filter, which avoids the turbulance over the stacks that causes alot of problems. The filter can be sized to have virtually no restriction... I was thinking of cutting and end off two Mopar hemi oval air filters and bonding them together. The filter element also ends up not being directly in the line of any reversion fuel that may come out of the stacks to hopefully mimimize chances of fire.
