If your engine cuts spark timing when it sees higher IAT (Intake Air Temp) you could try moving the sensor closer to the filter, that will help it see accurate temps since the sensor does not get heat soaked as much thinking the temp is higher.

I used a 3in flexible dryer hose and routed it to my air box. The three main configurations are
(1) Point the dryer hose right above the exhaust manifold (no shield)
(2) Same as (1) but added large aluminum foil pan shield
(3) Point the dryer hose away from the exhaust manifold
Keep in mind, I have a full wooden belly pan so minimum temps are around 100 - 110 F. The IAT has always been placed inside the air box probably a couple of inches below / outside of the air filter. Stock IAT location is in the plastic hose/funnel 2 or 3 inches outside of the air box.
