3800 85mm MAF

[MIKES3]

I am trying to install the 85mm MAF. I am running into problems fitting the high temp rubber bellows on. The throttle body opening is 3.25" and that would be connected to a 3.75" opening on the 85mm MAF. My question is do you think it would be to large of gap if I were to order a 4" - 3.5" bellow? That would be a 0.25" differnce. Do you think I can get it tight with the couplers?

Its the 85mm MAF from ZZP. Its the 6.0 liter MAF

Well, I got a little creative. Tell me what you guys think. I wound up not using the flexible black rubber product that ZZP supplies. I didnt feel very comfortable with it.
Check out the pictures and let me know if this is doable.

I know. I have the screw tight couplers from the speedbuilt FWI. Forgot to include those in the picture. I used a total of six.
