Default What SHORTY 3" intake to use for B18C1 EG w/ Victor X manifold?

Done some searching, but it's hard to find someone running this set-up it seems. I.e. not boosted.

I have a 92 CX w/ a B18C1. Victor X intake manifold and matching Edelbrock 65mm ITR throttle body w/ conversion. I am having trouble finding a shorty intake for the car. I tried running the AEM for a 95 Del Sol DOHC VTEC, but it says it's the same for 92-95 Civic EX/Si and 96-00 Civic EX. It's only 2.5" and I'd have to hack off a good chunk near the throttle body and hack off the bracket. Don't want to so, this is now going up for sale brand spanking new in the box. So if anyone wants it, getting rid of it dirt cheap.

Right now I have a cheapo ebay 3" shorty for an integra w/ ABS and a ractive filter found laying around at a local shop. The problem is that since it's for a teg w/ ABS it has that extra 45 degree bend where the filter mounts to clear the ABS and it hits the coolant res tank and does not behind the headlight (which is run Iceman ram style for track events) where I would like it like a traditional Civic/Del Sol one would sit.

I see AEM only make the 3" ITR intake in a cold air version. Rats. Has anyone found a solution?

Thanks.

I don't know if I have clearance for the icebox and the shortram portion has the same 45 degree bend in the end to clear the ABS that I am talking about.
