im not the man just one of them.good to hear that it got going on ya.ive learned since ive had my banshee,that the more you screw up the more you learn.that pesky choke tube has gotten me more than once.i would stay away from clamp ons ,i would pull the lid off and look into one of those cloth air box lids,there kinda new on the market,ive heard they work pretty good.cant remember the name but U.M comes to mind.if you do just check the jetting before you crank on her.with all my mods i run a 280 no lid and its a little fat (rich) near the bottom end,but its fine for me,but im near sea level,NJ you might be a little higher in elevation
