Default Arlen Ness big sucker fit stock housing?

I just installed a set of Rush slip ons w/ 2" baffles and I LOVE the sound. But after a few minutes of it running and checking for leaks (of which I do have one) I noticed the exhaust temps are a good bit higher. So I'm going to bite the bullet and get an Arlen Ness big sucker and PCV to bring my temps down. Will the Arlen Ness big sucker fit the stock housing already installed? I'm going to try and get rid of my leak (which is at the clamp) by repositioning the clamp and reseating the slip on...hopefully that works. Thanks

what year? Mine bolted right up to the intake housing. You just have to buy a new plate cover for the outside of the filter.

Make sure you get that map right away. Originally I got a generic Harley stage 1 download, that sucked. Then I ordered the PCIII with a custom map off what I told them I had done to my bike. Another crappy map. Finally I put it on a dyno with a custom tune. Picked up almost 20 horses. Do it right the first time!

I think if you are going to use the stock football cover then you will have to add a washer or 2 or use this o-ring part # 29591-99. I have a SE airfilter and believe the Ness is the same

my big sucker stage 1 came with chrome backplate and uses stock cover for about 115 delivered, gasket is part of the filter
