SS Ram Air Box Not fitting.......Please Help

I just bought an SS hood and Ram Air Box from American Sports Car Design. I cant get the Ram Airbox to fit right because of fuel lines and the traction control box on top of the right valve cover.

Anyone else have this problem and if so how did you fix it. Anyone have pics of the box with the traciton control box also?

If I remember right the SS never had traction control, I am pretty sure the unit will need to be moved just like installing a supercharger.

I had this exact same setup from ASCD and let me tell you how it sucked. It never fit right, ever! the Retainers that held together the airbox fell off one then the other(had to use tape after that) and then, when i finally took it to the track. I got one pass and the heat from the engine Split the Ram Air box wide open. Unfiltered air got all into my engine and it wouldnt start for a day and a half. This piece is a total POS and the most money i have wasted on my car ($300 something if i remember correctly), man do urself a favor and get a cold air induction kit like Moroso or K&N. I hope u have more luck with that airbox than i did.
