Go to home depot buy a piece aluminum take it to an ac shop or any shop that has a bender. Or better yet make your self it's very easy.

I bought my tray mount from Jegs.  I called and told them what size my scoop was and they found me a tray that you trim to custom fit.  The cost was $90,00 with shipping.  I will try and find the part number.  Here is a picture of when I was fitting it.  Remember the hole that goes around on top of the carb needs to be stepped up to clear the bowls.  Example on the 2nd pic.  Hope that helps a little

Check out Tuffpaw.com
They will sell you an unfinished tray or custom make one to your specs.
I had them make one for me with non standard center to center spacing, it was at
my door in less than a week in So  Cal    :thumbup:

Pricing is on the website as well.
