This is the style I've been looking for but can't find it in all black

Ghost: The one I posted doesn't look like it is a swivel fitting which it would have to be to line up correctly when tightening it down to the rail. Is the one you posted a swivel?

I just went and looked at mine again, it looks like the exact one I linked to, I just spray painted the end black so it would match the other fittings

No, but I already cut some plastic away when I had the stock intake with aftermarket rails. It would be a close fit, but still have clearance with the alt untouched. However, I do have the smaller 105amp alt, so not sure if the 145 goes further back...
