I actually had the same issue with my BBC setup. Engine is shifted to the passenger side a little bit due to the NOS BBC frame stands, and that caused my 14" air cleaner to rub on passenger side of the hole in the hood when the engine torqued on my NOS rubber motor mounts. I reworked my air cleaner base to shift the filter assembly back over to driver's side by about 3/8" and that solved the issue. I had to get creative with the filter stud also to make up for that shift. Here are the pics if you're interested Todd:
