will this work on a 76 cb550?

i like the idea of the one filter, and i'd like to not be running a stock airbox (i know they run better already) because i am going a bare bones rout with the bike and feel it'd be better with some open space back there. i'd fab a top cover for it, in case of rain. but i realy just need to know if the carb necks will line up with the ones on this filter setup? ( i can also take care of intake diameter problems ) so pretty much just is the spacing the same. or is it way off?
