I would think to much risk not running filters!

You really need a big box/filter assembly for Airflow. Small individual stack filters can restrict the airflow enough to piss of webers.

K@N part number 56-1230 If I remember right k@n offer shorter filters as well.
This filter mounts to the top plate of carb, the stacks fit inside the filter.
We ran these on our race cars years ago and did not seem to have any ill affect.
I would think having 1 inch or less hood clearance would cause some issues?
When you think about it, if you have the hood sitting that close to the top of the carburetor why would the air cleaner top be any different?
