Default 2nd Gen Shaker fit with Holley or tall manifolds

I was working an air cleaner for my Shaker. I have never been happy with my PTFB air cleaner for various reasons. 1) The element provides only 2" of actual filter rather than 3". 2) The distance above the air cleaner base in only 1 3/8". 3) The lid seals against the shaker only providing about a 1/2" slit at the rear for air to enter. IMO, all of these are counterproductive to using a performance intake manifold and Holley to begin with.

My goal was to run a drop base cleaner that will allow a Torker II and spacer. It had to use a full 3" element and had to increase the base to lid distance to at least 2" and preferably more. Here is what I have come up with so far. I need to clean some things up and I think I can make some improvements so I can run a full 1" spacer or RPM but for the most part, what I have accomplishes my goals.
