Now you really have me curious . I`ve stayed away from the Extreme lids for several reasons ( on my car ) . Clearance , or the lack of clearance between the carb vent tubes and the lid . I`ve always tried to keep a minimum of 3/4" between the lid and vent tube , but may have found a way around that with the side vented tubes from BLP . The other area I was concerned with was the Extreme lid being so close to the scoop/hood that the carb couldn`t pull the air in correctly . In talking to K&N , they said if the lid was too close to the hood , it could create turbulence with the incoming air and effect metering on the HSAB and IAB . I was told that their tests were done " in the open " .
Looks like that isn`t an issue with your setup .
