the BHAF is the way to go. just look in the sticky there are 2 tamplate pics so you can cut and bend it (edit: the filter mount) for next to nothing. there's also a cold air "pot" that i believe is also in that same section.

So, if I make a cardboard roll 10-1/2" diameter and 10-1/2" long, wherever it fits, a BHAF should fit??

I just relocated a pair of batteries to a custom built carrier, just in front of the rear tires, in an effort to make room for the stock size filter/box, and it is gonna be tight.

Thanks.

If your going to put a box around it you would have to add that to the equation.
