Even though I have a hood scoop, I think it would clear without the scoop. Let me know if you need more info such as part numbers.

Oval or small air cleaners fit up into the scoop, if one's there. 14" round air cleaners typically interfere with the hood itself as they're too wide to fit up into most scoops. If your 14" round AC fits it will almost certainly fit under 66gtk's hood.
Question: How deep is the drop on your AC? They come in different drops, and 66gtk could likely just get one with 1/2" less drop - assuming the sizes are that granular. I just looked at Summit's listings for 14" drop bases, and here's what they have:
