TC air cleaner options

this is how i got my 88 TC. vane air flow meter unbolted and flopping around , with a universal filter crammed on it. car runs ok, but stalls occasionally. I found a stock air cleaner setup and will put that on for now. but whats the best solution?

Find or make a bracket to firmly mount the VAM, and use a quality cone filter on the end of the VAM. The stock airbox is total , and very restrictive.
88 TC 5speed, 168000+ miles, stock 2.3T long block, ported RFE6 exhaust, Evergreen T3 running 15#'s.
Up next: FMIC, fresh air intake, ported intakes, ported big valve head.
