is it a one or two barrel steve ?? . anyway try carburetors unlimited , holley themselves , as if they dont have it they can direct you to someone who does , or reds headers and speed equipment . to name a couple . reds has a lot of parts for the strombergs and 94 holley's like my flatty has . maybe speedway motors too ????????????

I'd cut one out of stock material. It's easy. Put the sheet over the manifold, tap with a ball pein around the throat and bolt holes to establish their positions, then take to the bench and cut out with a razor knife. A hole punch set is best for the bolt holes. Costs about $.25 to make one.
