yes, but you'll need to get a shorter air cleaner.

Re: hood clearance with high rise

Be careful with the short or dropped type air cleaners. Some of them put the lid right on top of the carb vent/air horn. This can cause goofy problems at higher rpm. Maybe those K&N cleaners with the pleated tops would not cause this problem.

The perfect solution to your problem:
