Air Cleaner Question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

So these classic chevys are new to me. I've bought a C20 from my neighbor as a project. It did not have an air cleaner so I bought a chrome Edlebrock 14 inch and 3 inch tall filter. Upon installation, the mount stud is now too short. I figured I could just buy a longer stud. I cant find one. I poked thru "air cleaner" posts thinking I bought the wrong size, but I saw a few posts where some of you did have the same size. What am I missing or doing wrong?
My truck is a 71 C20 with the 350, Edelbrock intake and edelbrock carb. I do still have that factory spacer installed. Do I remove the spacer and get the breather that connects to the cleaner?
