They also refused to refund me because it took so long to get a replacement airbox (that still isn't right).

I think we discussed this...
I had a nice conversation with the owner of S&B Filters last week and they have all the photos of the fitment and their Engineering dept has made the necessary changes. While they cannot legally make any adjustments to the corner of the air filter housing due to being a manufacturer with an EO# in California, they have sent me multiple boxes that I will be installing in the kits we sell, so the housings will fit perfectly to the hood with either our brackets or GMS units. I will have these ready in January.
I agree the airboxes are all overkill as a stock paper air-filter in an OEM airbox made 697whp with 35% ethanol with just the right combination of cooling and tuning.
Hope this helps!!
