Just trim that back (neatly prior to painting) about .25" and you will be good to go. If you'd like I can send you pictures measurements or what ever you need.

Frank - from looking at your photo gallery that intake actually looks pretty tall. Bob P. sent me some photos of a medium riser with the air clearners sticking up in the hood scoop about a 1/2 inch, maybe 3/4 inch. Sounds like you found the right combination. Did you mill the carb pad any?
