Default Throttle Body Spacer Restriction

I want to put a K&N Cold Air Intake on my 5.7 Charger with a Airaid Throttle Body Spacer. Does anyone know if there is going to be space restrictions with this? It seems that with the spacer the hose coming off the CAI is going to hit the frame of the car. Has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks for the help

Without having the exact K&N intake your looking at it's hard to say for sure but your right because the Throttle Body Spacer will push the intake towards the front of the car maybe 3/4" and in trun the the CAI elbow may bump into the front crossmember.

I believe K&N makes a couple different kinds of CAI's for our cars, do you have the part # of the one your looking at?

Wouldn't it be easier just to remove the spacer? It's serving no useful purpose anyway.
